for you folks that did it this way.
what techniques, dos and don'ts for getting from point A to point B? Fish tape to pull it thru? Or are you able to just push it thru? I am going from front trunk, under gas tank up over fire wall, down into cowel hot air duct, behind speaker grill area, into the long and out the back to the sandwich plate. |

I would put a short piece of radiator hose or some other grommet where the lines come through the hole. That is very cool though, am contemplating oil cooler locations now, how well does that work, can the air get out the back of the trunk adequately through those holes, or is hood louverd or ducted?

That's it. I've never seen over 100C (212F) on the gauge and it ain't from lack of trying. 150 minutes of DE....the trans got HOT, but not the motor.....2 driver AX in 90 deg weather.....I was prepared to knock some more holes, but..... Grommets in all holes but those by the thermo. |

When I redid mine from-10 to -12 I used a section of like sized garden hose to set the right length and then had the hoses cut, flushed and plugged at Earl's in San Diego. That way they would not be too short, as that stuff is realy hard to stretch!
