Agree with Stephen. Get those oil lines off the exchangers.
I used a piece of scrap oil line cut open and tie wrapped that around the oil lines and found
a spot to suspend off exchanger. Again used stainless tie wraps.
I did this in my 2056 engine.
Car looks fantastic!

Connected all the starter motor wires


Finally caught you skimping on something! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) There is a rubber protector cap for the starter cable that is still available pretty cheap. Part # is 999-659-006-50. It will make your car run faster. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Looking great! Getting close to the big moment!


Ha! Yes, I actually have it and forgot to pull it out of the box and install. thanks !

So, after doing all the plumbing on the oil cooler I decided that the Blue color just didn't look right and converted it to black. I know this is one of the very few non original parts, but black just looked better. It just annoyed me. I also wrapped the hoses in heat shield material and tied them up off the exchangers with a metal clip. Now I just need to do the electrical hook ups. I put an inline temp unit that will send the temp to the controller.

I would have done the same. It looks like it belongs there now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Very nice and clean and tidy.
Makes a huge difference when all the details are "detailed."
Looking great.
