Finished replacing my lower ball joints and was feeling eager to start the engine up. In my hurry I forgot to clamp the lower radiator hose and found out about it revving around 5k. Feel like a dumb idiot. Made a mess on garage floor.
That's pure awesomeness right there, but honestly, I'd switch out to a half-core radiator with a pusher fan and a puller fan, and build a heat shroud to keep the header heat away from the radiator... Also give you room for a future turbo build
This is a great thread, nice pics and descriptions. Answered a lot of little questions i had with this build. Can't wait to see how it all turns out! keep it up man.
Finally made my radiator stays from 2 angle iron pieces.
Drilled one side with a hole for rubber grommet. Other sides are slots for
depth and distance adjustment. Crude but sturdy. V1 has to be ugly
