I like it... I have to "get into" hydro-cooling on my next rig, as I have NEVER done it before!

I like Dippy's because it has a "homegrown" look to it, that probably takes him "above & beyond" what std. factory built OEM stuff in this area does...

:)

* Well done & inspiration to me too...

This radiator is a bonneville heatercore...

Lets see a watercooling kit do THAT ;)

Ah, yea... that's right: You're the one who told me to opt for that, vs. an auxilliary tranny or oil cooler as the radiator!

Lets see a watercooling kit do THAT ;)

NOT! It's not going to happen... You're probably best-served by the heatercore you used, & it probably holds more fluid than other 'stock/oem' produced water cooling systems, odds are!

P.S.=> Good job, very "frankenstein" & homemade as I call it... & that is a compliment, not a put-down! apk

I second that, good job dippy. :toast:
I always prefer the look of customised DIY jobs, most machines would just look the same otherwise, hell, as long as it does the job holds up and doesn't leak then its perfect.
If only i had the time to do something similar myself :ohwell:
