Seems to be covering a lot of the rad and I would have thought that blown motor is gonna need a lot of cooling ?
( I know Bananarama! all though. !

Have electric fan other side to pull air though both cooler and rad

Seems the way most people do it

Is this all wrong ??

It's all good fella better to find out now hence why I post my life here

Had a look

Most modem cars stack like this

There are issues with some heat soak form rad to rad but ideally all should be the same temp ( i think ) not sure on gear box

I reckon it's a Gooden but anyone else think different please say

Very neat and it does seem to be how most production cars do it. Personally I've always tried to keep them separate, it just seems logical that the heat will dissipate better if one hot thing is far away from another hot thing. Possibly the difference is so slight it doesn't matter?

Always make sure you have a gap of at least a quarter inch between the oil coolers and the rad core. Otherwise airflow through them will suffer greatly.

Half inch would be better if you can.

Next was worried about the NSF engine mount as there are know to rip out due to engine torque so I drilled hole fitted counter sink head bolt.

Now if you tighten it up it squashes the mount so welded the nut so she is not coming off soon.

This Stupid bit of plastic had been driving me mental

My first plan was to Velcro this on but it won't last so I glued a Alu strip to it and this now bolts the plastic to welded nuts on inside of dash frame

I did think about that but such a fine line between class and bat mo bill.

Think it would just be to much. Feel I'm just getting away with the gold as it is. Mmmmmmm.

You could have black with gold in the centre of the back and seat or even just gold piping and stitching
