Do you think the thermal exchange capacity of the radiator could be diminish? (could be a back effect)

Possibly :?

Hopefully it will still be good enough as this is the radiator which many kit cars use, with many of them being high spec 2.0 engines

 

[singlespeed]

Way too low for the road down to this place

It's so prettyyyyy.

Where did you get the mudflaps from? I may have to invest in a set, the AD08s love to flick stones everywhere :lol:

with one of their lightweight alloy brackets on either side rear, to hold the inner edge. 6mm firtree clips from the local auto stores for securing them

This is how you normaly see these brackets being used, on the wings or arches of rally cars to hold the mudflaps

I used one of the brackets to create some support for the inner part of the mudflap which would otherwise be flapping about. I hid the bracket on the inside, which looks neater
>> My mudflap fitting pics<<


Maz. I guess the brackets you have would be bolted onto the wheel arch to hold the remote reservoir or they could be used to allow some rubber sheet to be attached to protect the reservoir

 

[singlespeed]

Apparently these are on their way

Trial fitment over the weekend, so hopefully they slot straight in. Then, that just leaves working out how to get running on them before instalation


Edit:-

Wayne has posted this picture on Facebook, which I have a sneaky suspision it could be from my throttles

AT Power will be releasing images of our first off prototype for a Brand new set of 4-Cylinder twin-housing 'shaftless' throttles later today.

A sneaky preview pic showing how tight this application is, any predictions to what Manufacturer/Car/Engine this set is going to be for?

 

[ollieallen]

Dear god they're beautiful

 

[Forza]

Wow, that's so freaking nice :mrgreen:

 

[Twingogangster83]

What do they cost?

 

[Ollie133cup]

Not jealous , honest.

They are lovely Neil. Be good to see how much different they have over my Bike throttles.

hummm ... look realy nice (do you have other picture ? ^^)

maybe I will put that one off these day

do you think it can work with electric wire ?

You have seen as much of the throttles as I have. Hopefully the courier delivers them tomorrow or it will be a long wait untill Monday

do you think it can work with electric wire ?

Possibly, but theres not much room where the throttle linkege sits.

Nice Neil! Looking forward to hearing it in the near future.

Where were them pictures taken by the stream?

Here, which is quite remote and interesting if you meet a Landrover comming the other way. I'm really surprised the Google van has been here, even though theres a gap in the Streetview coverage for half the track, where it breaks off the through road. I ended up with wheels on the grass in the center and the other set on the verge, grounding out a few times :? It wasnt so bad last time I came down before lowering.

Shaftless oval throttle plate. This significantly reduces the restriction caused by using a shaft, which inturn allows them to have the plate closer to the cylinder head without disturbing the airflow

I had a count up of the component parts and gave up at 120 :lol:

Loads of room. Well, there will be as soon as the expansion tank moves to where the battery used to be

Thats a big step forwards, but they are back in their box for now

Looking good bud, does your cams suffer from charge robbing on the standard inlet or is it like the clios and the inlet ain't the greatest?
