For the fall, I am interested in getting my 6 conversion car completed. I am going with a Mocal front cooler and wanted a little extra cooling for the hot Alabama summers. I am considering using the Wolverine boiler finned cooling lines to run up the longitudinal and putting a 12an fitting on each end to help the cooling to the cooler and back to the engine. I don't know anything about these lines or if this would help any. Can someone who has used this stuff give me a little feedback so I don't make a mistake.
Thanks! Jimmy |

The linear coolin line would be a neat way to run along the outer rocker panels, but airflow would have to be provided. They are not that badly priced in comparisn to AN12 aeroquip hose.
BTW, some folks advocate using -16 lines if it's going to be a track car. The -12 can be marginal (though it seems to work fine on my 2.7 street car). |
