I agree, but I've got a little turbo setup I'm putting together, so I'll probably have to run a half rad no matter what.... I'll probably upgrade to an all aluminum one that won't sit crooked though.

Jeez...talk about upgrading lol I thought you were going to rock the 1.5 forever. Sounds awesome.
I spent 2 hours hammering the lower rad brackets with a hammer while my eg was motorless one night trying to get the radiator to sit straight. I never could get it right

I've tried bending my lower rad brackets and cutting the little rubber mount and it always looks about a 1/2" off....
I might get a cast manifold for a T3/T4 and use one of these-

These things always are nickel dime kind of cars. I've spent so much money already on mine, and I could still blow $5000 in less than 30 minutes on this thing.

I thought I was too. Wife got a better job and I got a little promotion, so we have some disposable income for the first time in 8 years... It won't be a tire burner 1000HP SFWD car, but I just want to make 220ish WHP on 6-8 pounds. I got a minty fresh 2nd Gen DSM turbo and elbow for $100 and am just piecing things together around that. Finding a manifold that isn't made out of used 4 loko cans is the hard part.

Why not a greddy manifold? Pretty those kits had a 16g or something along those lines

Those Greddy manifolds are like gold.... I can't ever find anyone selling one separate from the other 200 pieces of random turbo junk I don't want. At least not for B-Series. I could find a bunch of SOHC manifolds for DSM turbos, but not for B-Series...

Car is looking superb, Slips!

Damn, even if I ran a log manifold or a cast manifold that makes the turbo sit higher than normal?

And you probably don't want one of those shoddy XS Power manifolds either

Mounted my breather/catchcan, put on my temporary intake, got the rad hoses in there, and put on my new Fueltuck'd black on black AN fuel line. The driver's side wheel bearing was toast and one of the ball joints was bad on the passenger side, so getting all that sorted out before I put the axles in. This thing is nickel and diming me to death.
are those the innovate motor mounts?
