Zircotec (Oxford) not cheap, but offered best heat reduction, also good guarantee. Nice people to deal with, friendly & very efficient. 7 day turnaround.

Well, I am gradually working through my 'To Do' list

Inter Cooler Ice box now fully plumbed & tested, no leaks ;)

Image

Modified wiper system, as old system was interfering with the I/Cooler pipe work. Not much to see, but took a few hours of today.

The bits of cut off pipe you see in the pic, are from the old dash. I'm waiting for some 1/4" tubing, then will mount new dash



Image

Image


Inter Cooler pipe work installed, had to remake all the 'O' rings, as I wasnt happy with what was supplied


Image

Image

Image


Finally finished all the fuel system pipe work, probably looks the same as before . . .

Are those twin plug heads, with one plug blanked off, or do I need my reading specs on?

Fantastic work mark, a real triumph of engineering.
The pump don’t work coz the vandals took the handles.

I think a lot of the aftermarket Hemi heads come with provision for twin plugs don't they?

:shock: 8-)

As Ivor has said, that is one quality piece of engineering!

Not often you get to see inside a car like this, and its just wow.

:notworthy: I would not have a clue where to start!:read2:

It makes you appreciate what goes into making a car like this! :thumbright:

Great to see it all coming together now Mark.
Is there no disadvantage to having such long pipes to to the intercooler and back?
I guess so long as there aren't too many bends, there's no restriction?
