I've been researching the 2056 engine build and the Type 4 Store has a bundled DTM (Down The Middle) cooling system.
Is this necessary or just marketing cruft? https://lnengineering.com/type-4-store/engi...ersion-kit.html Thanks. George |

The DTM is not for a Type 1.
It is a Type4 cooling system designed to be more efficient then the stock system. That said, for a 2056 is should be totally overkill unless you are making the motor into a high CR monster - and if you are doing that you probably know that you need it already and have spent a ton on parts. If memory serves it was designed for 2.5L+ motors that Jake was building back in the day that had thin cylinders and needed all the help they could get cooling. Zach |
