Nice build.I have a twin kit on my vette with twin A2W pt1000's and a heat exchanger. My IAT's are stupid low even in 105 degree tx heat. Not to mention not having a huge A2A core blocking the air from the radiator. Like the layout of your kit.

I guess when we get that far we will worry about it. Over the years of watching turbo cars I haven't see any turbo cars do wheel-standing wheelies like a nitrous car does. I see them do more of a power wheelie and only pulling the wheels 3-6inches off the ground.

My hopes are I don't have to worry about the car getting high enough to crush that pipe, but I am sure there will be more to worry about then that pipe if does go up on the bumper!

Not a lot going on right now at the moment. LS1NOVA got the gears in the new center and we got that back in the car. LS1NOVA is working on TB cable bracket , got the coils in their new home and wires ordered. LS1NOVA also got the fans mounted up as well.

Right now we are waiting on the water tank , block , and trans. I am sure once we get some more parts the build will pick up.

Well worked on the car a bit , got some odds and ends wrapped up , got the rear end together , and trans coolers mounted. We had to roll the car outside so I took some pics.




Here is a pic of the water tank and a2w trans cooler

All looks great and quality parts are used. Maybe add a bar tied to front "bumper" brackets and run under intercooler and piping for added protection....I am by no means an expert! Good luck getting it done asap. Sinister looking bird.....

The bumper is right flush with the intercoolers. The bumper actually had to be cut on the inside so everything would fit.

Is the tank the same for both the trans cooler and the IC's?

Will your trans fluid warm up to temp enough?

a2w trans cooler will be for track duty , with a a2a up front for street driving. Yes the tank is the same for the trans cooler and ICs. I will be using a valve to the trans cooler so can dictate when water.is going to the a2w trans cooler.

Absolutely sick. I was looking at the a2w trans cooler tank and decided it might heat the water too much on the street. What a great solution for this problem. Using the ole noggin right there!

Liljohn deserves the credit for that one. Lots of fittings and valves but a great solution as well.

LS1NOVA got the water tank and a2w trans cooler installed last week. Overall satisfied with the product but the wait time was ridiculous on these two pieces. I must say though it is starting to look like a badass racecar now with these two additions!
