I love Ac. I did that no Ac thing a few years back, now older and wiser. It's about enjoying a car and being comfortable.

Yeah, those shurlo pumps are not design for a hot running engine oil, I think they're mainly design just to pump water. I almost bought that couple of years ago just because of it's cheap price, but somebody talked me out of it. I know what you were thinking, my wallet is very attractive to cheap prices, too! Lol!

Turbowerx oil pump came in yesterday, installed it last night and fired it up this morning. Gonna take a while to burn all the oil out of the turbo and exhaust.




The cooling mist methanol kit arrived also. Here is a pic of it.



New fans will be here on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Thanks man, any updates on yours? I am ready to see a startup video. As soon as the fans get here I can make brackets for them and wire then in. Then put it back on insurance and do the inspection on it. I will put the methanol on it after I start driving it and then swap the gears in a few weeks. Its getting there, just taking some time.

Not much happening on mine right now. I'm waiting on my t56, I'm having it viperized. What kind/size of exhaust system do you have?

Its 4" coming out of the turbo then goes in 4" oval, then back to 4" all the way back to a mufflex 4" system with a magnaflow race muffler. Its pretty quiet which is nice. I can't wait to hear it under a load at full throttle.

Sweet man. This is on your car, right? You were also building a setup for a buddy, right? How's that one coming along.

Yeah this is for mine. His is a little slower as I have a car in my possession now that had a bad heads/cam install that resulted in a new shortblock. But I should be back on his next week. I got some parts on the way for it.

What are you doing for the ac install? Stock setup? I would like to see the progress on the other car you are doing with the turbo kit. Good luck

One out of two fans finally came in today, the other one will be here tomorrow. Probably won't get to work on mounting and wiring them till Thursday night or Friday night. Damn finals week for school is keeping me up late studying. I have next week off so the car should be back together and drive able then. I ordered an oil cooler and want to get that on the car before the bumper goes back on. I will take some pictures of the fans and the mounts that I build for them.

Waiting on a power steering hose to come in. Has some leaking issues, but should be taken care of next week. Putting the methanol kit on it Sunday. Getting insurance back on it next week also. Should be driving it hopefully by next weekend. Need to get some pictures tomorrow.

Well hopefully I'll have mine up by next weekend but I am building a new kit that keeps AC Hopefully and I might actually run this one.

Thanks for getting the gears turning.

Also that other build has gone back to a AC kit and single too.
