Here’s the latest update. Finally getting most of the internal plumbing done.

1 1/16 inch (3/4 inside diam) stainless steel hoses for oil delivery, via Dailey Drysump system:




Rear oil tank plumbed(right side pic). See tranny and diff cooler pumps.




Oil pump routes to two stage external oil coolers. Note heat tape to help further insulate oil lines.




Two stage external oil coolers





Diff and Tranny Coolers
Motec engine management automatically turns on pumps to route hot fluid when temps reach 200 degrees.






Outlets from tranny and diff coolers.




Intakes to tranny and diff coolers.






Coolant res installed with lines to Ron Davis radiators.


Now on to complete hook up of fuel cells. The suspension systems is a couple of weeks away from completion. Will post that next.

I stopped by and saw the car on Saturday. It's coming along nicely. Everything seems to be well thought out. The track opened today so let's hope it it's a rolling chassis soon!

BTW...Tom, I pulled a spark plug wire for your own safety!

Looks great Keep an extra diff pump aroumd they take a crap once in a while. Although my car never see's over 255 temps on oil I am using your idea on the splitter deflector to pack more air to the intake and rad. I had to repair nose due to starting on trailer in gear and popping my hand off the clutch at 2500 rpm Thanks!

I need to towel off at the thought of this baby hitting the track. Still have a long way to go, but the end is in sight.

PS. The vinyl accents on your "Beast" really made Adam's concept come to life. Your paint scheme is tremendous.


Good suggestion on addl back up pump! Good luck with air intake mod. Sounds like a winner.
