shrader valve from time may have worked.

 

You mean from a tire? Yea I'm thinking the SAME thing, the only thing I was worried about was the gas eating the seal b/c I dont know what it's made out of. That's the only reason I havent done it yet

 

Well trying to get the cap off that I put on, I broke the shrader valve. Got a piece of fuel hose and clamps and fixed it. Fired the car up to blow the crap out of the pipes, bolted the turbo up, ran the pipe from the turbo to the intercooler, and the oil lines. I've come to the conclusion I have to get new fans, even with one taken out, still dont have enough room to pipe the intercooler to tb.

 

97, i know how that goes. I just stood my radiator vertical while i was at it haha.

 

Yea I dont need THAT much room, and my dad doesnt want me to cut up my rad support, and I agree with him . I'm buying some low profile flex-a-lite pushers and putting them in front of the radiator, should give me MORE than enough room. The stock fans sit out 3.5 inches to the shroud, and 5.5 inches to the fan motor.

 

yeah, i didnt want to cut mine up either, but, i needed the room, and then i broke the nipple off for the overflow, so, i bit the bullet haha.

 

More update pics!!!

 

I told jon about the downpipe already so he can make future kits with more ground clearance. I have a welder so I'm just going to cut it off and reweld it higher.

 

 

Great pics bro!

 

might want to check your air dam fitting wtih the pipes right there. I didn't want to cut my air dam, so i had to get a couple extra 90* fittings and just went up and around it

 

Oh I just put those on there so see how far I had to cut them. I already routed the turbo to intercooler, only using one 90 and that curve tube cut about 4" shorter on the piece that connects to the intercooler. The air damn should have a good amount of room. I'll post pics of the routing once I'm done, waiting for the fans to get here first.

 

yeah man, that is awsome. i know what my next build is gonna be

 

It's alive, going to paint it either this weekend or next, then it's driving time

 

Got to tell us more than that... go break it in and report back.
