|
|
Hi all,
have been pointed in this direction by Ian (doppelganger) as im about to embark on a new project and could really do with some of the knowledge and experience held on this forum, so here goes
i have a 1967 kemperink, its a full meter longer than a standard splitty, this is an x dutch army one and weighs over 2 tones, its on a big nut transmission and reduction boxes, i really dont want to straight axle it or IRS it,
i have just got hold of a legacy, whole car, and an adapter plate to fit the engine to my gearbox, so i guess what im asking is for your ideas about cooling, i really want to put it underneath as there is so much room under there but have no experience in doing this, where to get pip and hose from, how to mount, fans and scoops etc
plus anything helpfull that i can plan for now to make things go smoothly, im looking to take the bus to some hot climates but it also has to work well over here,
thanks chez |

Hi &
Who've you heard that from? _________________ The advice you receive on here is worth the paper it's written on.
Your experiences are worth shed loads to others, including the f'ups - live and learn.
Wouldn't YOU rather learn by someone else's mistakes? So would they.

I'm surprised you can actually remember anything from Battlebridge  _________________ The advice you receive on here is worth the paper it's written on.

But he didn't hear it. Did anyone hear it? _________________ The advice you receive on here is worth the paper it's written on.

you showed me in the engine hatch at battlesbridg and then started it up... I saw things turning round but no noise... then you revved it and things turned round quicker but no... still no noise....
More like Stealthy Stranger - when's the radar reflective paint going on then? I imagine you must be able to get some from work!  |
