Crikey,

Looks like Carribbean Bob is going to get an upgrade to Antipodean Bob

Plan seems to have come together quite well though.

LOL! the core manufacturer actually made 10 (in error) so he should have loads of spares. P.S. Needless to say I only bought one!

Hi Don,

i have to ask after a closer look to the water pipework, do you concern engine motion?

i can't can see it clearly enough, but would use a hose in the elbow between the swirlpot and radiator outlet

The short length of Samco hose between the water pipe between the engine and the swirl pot is designed to accomodate engine movement. There's still some detail to be worked out in terms of final installation.

I am hoping to have some pics of the water pump, header tank and oil cooler next weekend and will take more detailed pics at that time. The ones I have posted were taken by the fabricator and emailed to me. I still havent seen any of this with my own eyes!
