Gentelmen:
I'm addressing these questions to the forum site, hoping to clear up some things for myself and other builders of this conversion.
Radiator: Men of experience, could you go through the whole radiator conversion sequence, IE; transforming the inlet and outlet, especially the
inch and a quarter L shaped nipple pointing 5 degrees towards the thermostat housing. Also, how has the radiator location changed after this conversion...is it higher in the engine compartment or the same? Are there any mods to the radiator brackets?
Gauges: Any tips on what gauges will fit the dash holes where the Alpine speedo and tach were that will work with the T-5 transmission and V-6 engine? And what is the brand and source of the gauges used?
Thanks to Jim E. and Jose for their help in the past.
