as long as i can see the tempreture , then that will be fine, but really should be Ok on rack as I have just bought an aluminium radiator, and will have the fan on a manual switch

Will also have SPA oil pressure /temp guage and boost guage

Also fitting a 16 row oil cooler withthermostatic take off plate to help control the oil temp /pressure as well as running TITAN PRO race oil

Suspension back from the powdercoaters today ,very pleased with it, so just need to fit the polybushes to the bottom arms and get it all flicked back on
