Do you have a camaro or t/a? We were going to use the stock condenser, but the fittings on the condenser would have hit the pop up headlight brackets on the t/a. We got a 24x12" replacement.

 

its a camaro
my top AC fitting on the condenser was really close also
so i welded a cap on the top of port and welded a tube 2 the bottom of the port 2 drop the line down even with the frame rail

 

im trying to run my stock fans and radiator .

anyone have pitures of this done ?

ill be running a BWs475 and just mocking everything up right now and clearances will be tight . dd and dnt feel like the after market fans and rad will keep it cool

 

I am deployed to Afghanistan right now, so could someone maybe answer this for me, but how far further does this actually move it forward and how much more room does it give you? 2,3,4 inches?? Can someone measure it for me. Thanks

 

check out my thread. i have a s88 with the stock radiator/fans

this is my build with a BW s480 with a 1.32t6

 

You stole my idea, kinda sorta...not really lol

 

i like your idea....

 

Just gut the top support out and you don't even have to cut or bend anything on the bottom support....

 

which radiator is this?

 

25241-x griffen rad, got it from summit. I have to junk fans in front and a 160 thermo and it never goes above 205...even stop and go traffic

 

Ive done a couple cars this way and works very well...and im sure ill be doin some more too

 

Yea that looks great I really like that. So the bottom support is untouced?

 

What kind of water temps you all seing

 

yes the bottom rad support is untouched and I normally see 85 outside with 185 to 205 driving and stop and go driving. I dont know about 100 degree heat tho cause it doesnt really get that hot here but I would say 100 degree outside air would be still good enough with good fans...I only have junk ebay fans

 

I have a question.

My a/c compressor is in the stock location. I have my condensor mounted in front of my radiator and I need to run the line from the compressor to the condensor only it needs to be re-bent to work. What should I use to bend this tubing with?

Has anyone else done something similar where they had to just re-bend this line to make it all work? I really need to get this a/c working and charged before I go to the beach

 

I am glad you finally posted your pics up man, this thread was painful...def the cleanest route to go...

 

how close is too close for the hot side of the turbo to radiator clearance ?

1 inch too little clearance ?
turbo is physicaly big ( t6 s475 and spooling performance kit) and very close to the griffin when stood up . thinking about facing it torwards the front bumper support and at angle with a large bottom feeding sheet metal ducting ..

should work . already mocked it up but still wanted to figure out any easier ideas !
