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 |

I am committed to a Mocal cooler I got at B.A.T. some time back. It is the larger of the two that is set up for the front like the original car had. I will have to make a box for it though. The inlet lines on it are -12 I think so I was just going to run that through-out. This is a beefed up 3.0 with steel flares. It will be a street car but I do want to run it in local D.E's at Barbers.
Tell me this George, Does the hose that you spoke of have a better heat displacement? I have some steel braided line but I want to achieve the best cooling possible. I will put in a thermostat so a little overkill will be OK. This is a great help folks, Keep it coming! |
