ah gotcha, i was wondering it it was too thick and too high. Anyway, i am still intirested to see if i can fab tanks for our stock cores. has anyone tried that? my father is an excellent welder and he can weld aluminum like no other so maybe i can try it. Anyway the biggest problem for me would be the cap housing. well we will see as soon as i get another one, plastic or aluminum which even comes first.

Put me down for one.
I just bought an SVX today, I have been a big fan for a while now and I finally got one. I have no idea if the car I bought will have any probs but this certainly can't be a bad mod to do. Thanks |

Questions
being ignorant...
If I get this, and my tranny finally goes south (paranoid), do I need to replace this b/c of clogged lines or something? Do we have a final cost set on these? It removes the need for an aftermarket cooler? Installable at home by mechanicly minded person? When will the project be finished/ payment be required? I am very interested, if it replaces the ATF cooler. |

Aluminum radiator
How many people have committed to the group purchase?
How difficult will replacing the OEM radiator be? How will the tranny cooler hook up? I'm v. interested...my "92 seems to radiate a great deal of heat from underneath the car, particularly in the summer here in s. cal. so I'm concerned about the longevity of the trans. Thanks, WGJ |

hey earthworm, that plastic weld my old man laid down blew apart thurs night. I continued to cut it off and i found the crack was not completely cut out. i cut the crack completely out and welded it myself this time. still not missing a beat. just letting you know the plastic weld is holding up very well.

Ok, I'm in, sort of
As long as I don't have to move the positioning of the battery, AC or any other parts around and can be installed with moderate ease I'm in.
Oops, I guess I didn't read, too little too late for me. Good thing is at least now I get to order it in my leisure. Last edited by Weebitob; 11-21-2004 at 10:23 PM. |
