one thing i noticed when dropping the engine this weekend was that
the heater blower on top of the engine is mounted in a slight angle and when it rains hard, it fills up with water! get's into the hoses too. you turn on the heater fan and it'll blow loads of water into your heat-exchangers and eventually into the longs! gotta need to attach a small block off plate to the underside of the lid right over the fan.

QUOTE If the temps dont drop when you completely remove the engine lid... then a GT grill doesnt do anything I ran a couple of track days with the GT lid and a 11 blade fan with smaller pulley and saw very little improvement in oil temps. Putting the oil cooler in front is what made a big difference. |
