Thanks for kind words fellas.
Once I had the tub work done it was time to drop the motor in and do a mockup so I could get oil filter relocation, intercooler, radiator, etc mounted before actually painting it.
I knew from the start I wanted to run a HMIC setup. At first i was going to run the PBM one but after seeing some stuff on here figured I would go a different route
I picked u a core and some cast 90's. Cut the ends off the core and cut a bit from each 90, you can see the KOYO rad covered in cardboard also. needed that to make sure it would fit
The rad was cheap and in decent shape, should hold up for a while
I cant take credit for the welds, I have zero TIG experience...one day
Some drilled and tapped posts on top for mounting to the rad support.
Boom custom HMIC core done.
