What brand did you go with? I was thinking of going with the WeaponX TrackAttack but don't feel very comfortable blocking the entire radiator.

Are you running a NORCAL tank as well? I'd have to call and talk to him over there. I wonder with it being so thick how airflow is with it. I do like it though.

Any problems with the AI interchiller? There seems to be more drama between the 2 interchiller choices than a all girls high school....

No, it works. All of the bad mouthing is strictly to try and steal sales from the other.

That's the route I'm looking to go now; ditch the Track Attack and go with an interchiller.
Torn between the guys out of Australia or I think even Ben @ WeaponX made one too?

Ben is pushing the Aussie product. Only 2 options really are the Aussie or Dave down in Florida. Both work.

Have you had any issues with engine temps with this setup? I'm debating between your style and the low dual pass for my first gen V. I like the large surface area you have with this design, but I was concerned with it covering most of the radiator. Notice any temp increase in your engine coolant?
