why the big ass radiator? would one that fit the front with out cutting all the supports work just fine? maybe go thicker instead of taller? just wondering. nice build.
Deimos
12-17-2011, 08:39 PM
Good question. I could have used the stock radiator support but now it is easier to cheat to get the engine and trans out. Besides plans are to copy Jeremy's template or have him bring me one at bowling green for a different mount.

the pipe threads on a nitrous system should have paste sealer on them instead of the tape, even a small piece of that tape will make a solenoid leak.. just a fyi
Deimos
02-19-2012, 06:19 PM
nick scavo said so lol
AutoMods
02-19-2012, 06:25 PM
I don't know what my deal is but I seem to have better luck with teflon tape sealing on npt threads. Not talking nitrous specifically but on fuel fittings, regulators and most recently I tried harvey's teflon paste from lowes on some air compressor fittings and some of my connections were leaking. Redid them with tape and it was sealed first try.
Deimos
02-19-2012, 06:46 PM
Pretty sure it was scavo only now I cant find the vids. Anyways says to use tape cuz its better and not to install the parts too tight.
Scott
02-20-2012, 04:05 PM
yea I do agree the tape seems to seal better, even the instructions for the nitrous kit and Steve at Induction solutions also told me not to use it.. I think a leaking fitting would be better than a internal leak on a solenoid blowing the intake off the engine

I start it weekly. I might be heading down to moline if mustang mike dont pick me up some c16. Im having problems embedding the photobucket link so I may have to switch it to youtube.
As for the fenders they got shaved. However I have been on a performance parts buying freeze until I can get a clean pass out of it. So hopefully after august I will be good.
