I'm concentrating on the drive-ability issues first, then I'll tackle the cooling setup and front tub restoration later. |
I had some radiators built to put in place of oil coolers and ran a 6 core center rad and ended up switching it to a renegade hybrid unit, I installed a different fuel cell and wasn’t concerned about spare tire. All my hoses run through the rockers and I run a electric water pump, to fill system I use a 5 gallon bucket with a pump submerged in anti freeze and pressure to bleed system.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1546149270.jpg

What kind of radiator setup did you run before, and what were the problems with it? I’m currently fitting a modified Jeep radiator in front of the tub, but with an air duct that’s similar, but larger than this. I’m also going to be running a stock internal Subaru 3.0 flat-6. One of my strongest design requirements is that factory gas tank is not altered and I retain 100% use of the trunk. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...65aa94a0b3.jpg Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro |
I am running a aluminum block 350 with TwinTurbo‘s, no intercoolers and meth injection To cool the charge. The first set up directed air through radiator and out the side aprons to the wheel wells and that air flow was not enough so fender radiators were added. It helped but still not good enough. I was wanting to keep the tank but it couldn’t flow enough fuel, I actually cut the tank up for the lower pan and had that installed on the first set, and installed a different fuel cell above it.
With that shroud pic where is the radiator going? You have a front shot, of how the radiator and shroud work together? |
Oh ya, forget the trunk that’s what the back seat is 4
|
What kind of fans will you be running?
|
Any new radiator options?

After some measurements, I found that three slim 8 inch fans will work well, like these https://www.mishimoto.com/mishimoto-slim-fan-8-inch.html I already ordered this radiator, should be here in a week or so. Then I’ll make a wooden mock-up and use that for the fitting. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro |

The radiator arrived today and I did some test fit ups, I think it will work well. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-engine-conversion-tech-forum/1019879-76-porsche-912-subaru-2-5-swap.html Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro |
Here's another radiator option for side, fender mounted radiators.
The 2003 to 2007 Honda VTX1300S motorcycle Radiator. The radiator core measures 7 inches by 13 inches. The tanks on the end are 1.5 inches by 7 inches. This would be a perfect size to fit in the front fenders. What else is great about these, is they come with a rock-guard grill and a fan shroud. It's all there. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1550562742.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1550562742.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1550562742.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1550562742.jpg |
