Turbo brakes, dual oil coolers on a 73

Here are some images from the latest round of upgrades on Black Beauty.

Click on the thumbnail for a larger view of any picture.

To keep the 3.6 cool, I'm running an inverted Turbatrol oil cooler (with a fan) in series with an inverted Carrera cooler. The passenger side battery box was cut out to make room for the cooler with the fan. So far, it's been working well:



And then there are the Turbo brakes. Here's the front right set:



Here is the rear right set:



Here is the rear left set:



I'm hoping to heat cycle the new brakes this week, and then track the car on Friday.

Hey Jack,
When you upgrade to Big Reds later this summer let me know I'd like dibs on the turbo brakes.

Nice job!!

Jack,

Great job!

Marc

got any other pics(or info) of the hub/rotor interface? Yours looks to be much more sanitary than most(floating?/non?).
Is the powerflow muffler ss?
The heat can easily be hooked up, just use the stock heat from an 84-89 Carrera 3.2

Jack,

The black beauty is lucky to have you feeding it tasty bits every few months. Gorgeous brakes and coolers!

BTW, how do you like the Bilsteins? My Konis are starting to get tired, so I'm keeping my eyes open for a good deal on replacements.
