Thought you had the pipes done underneath?

I did for the old transfer box but the viscous is a lot closer to the chassis and so the old pipes don't fit
I've worked out where to put them but actually doing it is going to be fun

The plan is 1 over the top of the engine one behind the sump then join up, go below the floor on the passenger side and into the tub below the rad

Nice mate
Could use rubber pipe for cooling or is it too expensive?
Boats have rubber all over the show, no problems there, guess hard pipe is cheap though...
Yeah basically you want lots of cooling available!

Using steel for the straight bits with rubber connectors and joins, easier to make and secure and more sturdy too

might be worth adding some shielding to the bits underneath, also your gona need to add a bleed to the one above the plenum
But looking good!

Yeah ill add a bleed to the pipe (piece of ****) and the rest is above chassis rails so is quite well protected but that's something I'll definately look at
I will have a crossmember but ill have to make one and ill make it to fit around what's there and to protect everything so that'll be the last job

I don't really need to
Just gotta make a top for the selector and make sure the high low lever has space

There's not a lot of space anyway
Plus I'd have to start cutting away at the seat box and it's just a lot of work
Plus ill have destroyed my exhaust 4 inches before hand and the pipes are over half a metre off the ground and above the chassis rails and transfer box so I'm not too worried

will the exhaust not melt the rubber pipe ? or is it just a very flat looking steel pipe there ?
