It gets cold here in Northern California often in the moorning. So I decided to build a liquid heater. First, I spent some time measuring the inside of the fresh air box. I figured I could fit a core 11x6 maximum. my son and I spent several hours at the local Pick and Pull junk yard. I settled on a Transmission cooler from a late model Ford Truck. Cooler measures 10x6.
![]() I quick placement and I realize I need to cut! The water dam for the fan must be cut down. Make sure not to cut all of it so that it will still keep some water off the motor. ![]() The finish cut to the dam. Ready for the lid? Not yet. ![]() |

I don't have pics at the moment. My previous Rotary conversion car had a nice system setup. It was built & bolted to the engine bar right next to the motor. Easy to have the lines run from the motor ports. Then introduced the heat the way the heat exchangers do. Had dual hoses running to each side just like you would for HE. Seemed like a pretty good way to go if you have the space in your engine bay. Which most of us with watercooled motor's do (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
Looked up my thread & got pics Attached image(s) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
