Scott made some little brackets for the radiator so it is tilted forward slightly which gives us some more clearance behind.


Then Thomas welded up some lovley alloy pipes for the coolant system. We are trying out a One/Cooper thermostat housing, no header tank and no in car heater so we've had to modify the coolant system slightly. This pipe comes round round the oil heat exchanger and feeds into the rad.

Exciting delivery from the U.S.
