Radiator protection

I like how you converted the jack lift brackets to tow hooks. Did you make them?

Now you can see how we installed the SS Wire in front of the radiator to protect it from rocks .... Also the oil cooler is exposed ...but it is much stronger then a radiator and easier to change.... if neccessary.



Packing the air in the radiator so it doesn't leak is very important ...also with the opening in the front of the car.... the air will slow down when it hits the radiator because the radiator hole is much bigger .... this is important as if you can get the air to slow down... then it cools much better....

Morris will let you know, but it looks like he just used the two holes that were used for the quick jacks. It's great as they go into the frame. I've thought in the past to do the same, but I don't race much anymore.

(Looks like he ran out of room for the "tow sticker". Or does it read, Oow !) lol......

Get some SS rod and take them to a place that deals with truck springs....and have them bend them in the radius you need to match you mounts in the body then thread them an install .......they are great for us to winch the car up into the trailer......as well as the track....
