next modification - oil cooler:

due to AC, there was no room for oil cooler, so took me long time to find out the solution

after couple hours measuring and thinking, I find the 9 rows cooler
Image

but the cooler was too high with adapter fittings
Image

Image

so I make them fit (cat and veld)
Image

Image

Image

then I made brackets from aluminium to mount cooler on his plase

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

now still working on oil lines

Nice work! I know the problem! The cold doesn't help.
Its only +10 degree Celsius in my garage, I ran put of gas for my heater today.. Even that Wasn't pleasant.
What is the temperature at your garage?

Bracket looks good! I do not like the oil line that close to a moving part especially a pulley.
Make sure it will never gets too close!

Still can not believe you are running this setup with power steering and ABS :D

Keep it up!

Some of us like a quality challenge, instead of taking the easy route ;) :P

:lol: :lol: do miss the power steering.. But only when not driving it..
Never had ABS on the lude.
You still have aircon? That I miss the most.. But we have different goals. Full track and sleeper are way apart!

Btw , Easy route :mrgreen: :roll: I wish
