I've been converting an orion to Zetec power and have looked through and found some inspiration, need to look into oil coolers for sure.
It's clear you've done a stirling job, definately prefer it in a more stealthy road guise.
Good work dude!
Thanks, gotta be the best reply ive had so far
i wouldnt get an oil cooler unless going on track, the oil NEVER goes over 85-90 on the road, maybe as the thermostat in the sandwich plate opens at 80degrees and starts to cool, either way id say it still wouldnt go over 100 max without a cooler.
Mapping booked at RS Tuning in Leeds for next saturday now the cams are timed up bang on... im going to RS Tuning this time for a few reasons, i cant take a day off in the week and Mikeanics arnt open weekends and also id like to have it mapped there as they're known for being spot on using Dyno Dynamics Rollers where as Mikeanics are a tad optamistic... the car's always smelt like its ran rich tbh so we'll see next saturday
