Haha 200's have that affect on some of us....

Some quick work yesterday - Modified the stock fan to mount onto the new radiator.

[amd is the best]

What are you planning on doing for the temp sensor in the radiator?

[WOMBAT]

I'm going to have to make an Al bung to weld on. I'll have to do the same for the overflow line.

Had some project ADD last night and did a few things....

Corrected my rear coilovers - got rid of my inverted stock lower spring perch and properly mounted the threaded collars. Also installed helper springs.

Terrible before:


Now mo-bettah. Can see my new (craigslist) tires - Conti pro-contact 245/45/R18


I cut this ring out of the stock spring perch which gave a more robust base for the 1/8" steel washer that holds the threaded collar



I received my cheap ebay intake plumbing yesterday too, so I decided to get some of that done. It'll be the shortest charge piping ever, but then again it is 3".... So after some careful chopping:




Lastly, I slid the radiator back in with the modded stock fan to check fitment - should work nicely!

It's all fun and games 'till someone throws a rod... :dur:

[death 4kqt]

get a nice base tune on it, drive it to carlisle, and let marc make it crazy! Getting a safe base tune going is easy! I could offer some help some night after work.

[loxxrider]

I could also help out if Dana or Nick can't for some reason. Just send me logs and I tune that beast.

[WOMBAT]

I keep hearing the name, and heck he even works in the same place as I do, but I've never met him... Have only seen his truck drive by with the VEMS logo on the side.

[death 4kqt]

its time to meet him! hes a super nice guy. I never met him when I worked at IBM either, but I met him over at big Chris's shop. He was at Wolfsgart also.
