Did some coolant things today. Cartek air bubble sensor on upper radiator hose, and had someone TIG weld some big -24 flanges on the lower radiator outlet as well as the thermostat housing inlet (with the actual thermostat removed before welding of course). Then I fabbed up the -24 braided hose. Boy that hose was a bi0tch to install. I'll have to thoroughly observe its operation while I do the first fire and first few test runs because that hose is a lot stiffer than I thought it would be. If I don't get a good feeling about it, I may scrap it and use a pushlock deal instead with traditional rubber hose, then just overbraid it with nylon and heat shrink for looks. Then again, I'm still hopeful as the motor sits on poly mounts and shouldn't sway around too much.
