I really loke the way the rears tuck up in the fenders. Makes the rear tires look massive.

Got my front lines all done for the rear mount radiator in 16an, going to set it up reverse flow so it cools the heads first.

Be mindful of fluid dynamics flowing coolant down into cavities vs flowing up, filling voids and pushing any air into vent tubes at top of system..

Well made a big change on the project. Picked up a 1200hp rated jegs glide with 1.8 first, and wasn’t comfortable with the stock case it comes with so I bought an ATI case, bell, and tail housing along with a custom Jakes converter for it.

Yea I hear you, it was a decision about 2 years in the making tbh. I’m not spending all this time and money to not give the car the best chance it has to be it’s fastest. I drive the **** out of my iroc both n/a and turbo with a 5500 stall and 28” tires. I’ll still be able to comfortably drive 60-65 no issue, just no more 85 lol. I’ve got 6 80e’s here so if i can’t stand it, no harm lost ipl
just go back lol. But I have a feeling, as far as hooking on **** surfaces, this was the right move

I was actually gonna go with a glide and a gear vendors till i priced the gear vendors. Holy crap they are expensive so im going with a 2.10 4l80e. I think its the best and not so crazy expensive compromise.
