Hey Guys

Just wondering is it worth while putting the standard radiator shroud back in ? Im fitting a alloy 42mm triple core radiator to replace the standard one & cause the thickness is a lot bigger it's a pain in the bum to fit the shroud back in too ! Can i leave the shroud off & won't effect the cooling ? Cheers guys :)

the shroud helps the fan pull air through the core effectivly, much better cooling with it on

But with the lot thicker new radiator wouldn't cooling be alot better too ? I have seen a fair few cars without them , is the shroud going to make that huge of a difference ?

      I understand, thanks. Yeah I wouldn't want the car to tip over, I'll try and use the sills, I don't want to risk smashing the chassis rails. I ordered some rubber pucks that have a hopefully big enough slotting. If the front right gives me trouble I can always just make a wood block. I'll measure and inspect the sills closer once I actually take the car up. I hope so, but the rubber blocks I had in hand so far were pretty damn firm, if they are that hard they won't give much way. I'll let you know what happens. Angle grinding rubber isn't one of my favorite tasks. I'll probably start a build thread soon, for my own documentation and "log" as well as sharing what's going on with the car.

      Kinda something I have been thinking about.  To be honest, we bought it already driving like that.  So there's no telling how long it actually has been driving like this.  Hopefully damage is too bad when we drop the pan.   I am having a hard time finding a site that sells the solenoid for the 5 speed auto, do you have any suggestions?

      This is what I've done, add DC until it meets my fuel pressure requirements and above 4500 at over 1bar of boost, I send its mum with 100% DC to both pumps. I'll post up a table soon when I'm free.
