[Morton]

V8 radiator installed.
V6 thermos rigged up and trimmed to a tight fit until we find AU thermos.
Davies Craig aux fan hooked up.

[Lumps of cheese]

Very nice work guys, going all out for a thrasher though aren't you?

[Morton]

Yes, yes we are. But a comfortable, well-sorted and reliable thrasher

Now back together.

[VN_Luke]

I got some EF? or EL fans that are pretty hacked up, but you could make them work for cheap

and by "hacked up" I actually mean that they are, in fact, "mad custom"

[Morton]

Engine wired up, flushed, and running well.
Battery terminals redone. Properly.
Interior complete.
Little bits and pieces all tied up.








Next weekend, suspension + brakes + transmission and maybe exhaust

What a weekend!!!

[HoZy]

I am soo glad to be home an far away from this car... hahahaha

What an amazing weekend of Go Go Go!
Looks like a completely different car both on the inside & under the bonnet, All electrical gremlins fixed and just simply amazing the change.

This is going to be good.

Cheers
Mat

[SweetWagon]

Nice work fellas!

[padrickz88]

ALSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSO! forgot to suggest this, if your going to be thrashing it a fair bit, i'd recommend changing the oil pressure relief spring to an ecotec one

[tr3nt]

Love it!!!

[HamaTime™]

Not going to lie, you've acheived more in one weekend on this car than I have in 3 and a bit years of owning mine!

I feel quite outdone.
