Yeah, might be just a "tad" redundant since it would be sitting under a somewhat larger KILL SWITCH hanging off the cage, but I still want one!

Setrab 19row
Mocal sandwich plate w/thermostat
Earl's ProLite 350 lines (lighter and just as strong as Earls stainless weave)
Aeroquip -10AN fittings (2x 90*, 2x 45*, 2x -10 to 1/2"NPT)

For a convenient solution the M-Factory kits look like they do the job.

FWIW that ProLite 350 stuff is amazing. Equally as strong as braided SS but 1/4 the weight and doesn't leave metal shrapnel inside your skin after you work with it!

As for the steering wheel...mine is stock, I think it works, but I hear these things kick *** on the track:

I was looking through a Pegasus catalog last night, and already have a Greddy oil cooler, but I like the idea of a remote filter.

With respect to the Steering wheel, just got a used Momo D35 wheel, but after getting into the caged car yesterdat a QR for the wheel would be nice and convenient.

Someone had discussed steering wheel Quick Releases either here in in the Racing forum below, but I'm still looking for additional opinions. TIA

Mocal 19 Row cooler
Mocal sanguich plate
-10AN lines and fittings.
You can easily add in the remote oil filter too, but if you do I'd get an inline thermostat rather than the sandwich plate one.

be careful with remote filters. from what I have read it seems if they are mounted high or far away from the block the oil pump will struggle to keep pressure in the system. loss of oil pressure at the wrong time = no good for j00.

Eric, thanks for the pics.
But I may need to place an intercooler in there as well, eventually.

Up until I bought the twin FAL setup and Koyo last week I was considering a radiator with built in oil cooler.

As it is, I'll have to check the spacing with the BYS front.
Maybe I can stick it in the driver side opening up front.

intercoolers are lame

you'll have room to maneuver it around and place it in a way to accomodate an intercooler as well.

I'm in the same boat zyg...I've been using http://www.amstreetrod.com to construct exactly what I need. Definitely get the sandwich adapter with the thermo built in, and I would suggest not going with the filter relocator...you may run into issues later with all the extra plumbing...especially if you go back to boosting your ride. Lastly as for the size line to use...I plan on using -8an, but -10an will work as well.

Cheers

On the subject of QRs:

-I'm using an LTB Spline-drive dealie, and like it a lot. It does have a little play when I'm sitting still, but I don't notice it at all while driving. Great quality, easy to put on/remove, and no chance of anything breaking and leaving me fubar'd. Some of the best $99 I've ever spent, honestly.

-Sander's using one of the NRG QRs, and while I was very hesitant about it at first (ball-bearing, not splined), it fits real snugly, has no play, and has shown no problems whatsoever. I do like the release mechanism on the LTB more (a ring around the entire column, rather than one push button for the NRG). One of the benefits of the NRG though is that you can get the lock thingy to cover the column with the wheel off.
