Gosh, i drove alot across statelines, to dallas, shreveport, baton rouge, new orleans. ALOT. Multiple times, racking up miles.

I just pulled the old clutch, material almost gone, pilot bearing was toast. There's a shop thats open from 10am to 3pm, gonna take the flywheel to get resurfaced.

This is how the mini-rad is mounted. The washer fluid reservoir had to be removed for this to fit. The hoses have yet to be plumbed into the heater hoses, and the fan isn’t wired in either.


Tight fit! Gotta watch really watch the road now...

Is the heat coming from the engine or the air pulled in and just trapped in the engine bay? You take a thermo gun to the engine and the engine bay?

From the looks of it, heat would have a hard time staying in there...

Do what I do with my wife’s G35. Get some 2x6 boards and put one under each front wheel. You could even get some shorter ones and lay one on top of each of those like steps. A jack will fit fine under it then.

Tony, I’m using antifreeze from NAPA. That good ole mix with anything mess.
