it will only ever go to m.a.d mate he built the engine and its on autronics needs a re map as ive fitted a hart inlet but thought I may as well do the intercooler as well as I was not happy with the way my rs500 type intercooler meet with my throttle body plus the new cool has a 70mm out let to match my throttle body

No still standard beam but I do get good grip with my 888s and gripper diff! im not to shore what one id go for to be honest! Theres a very well know drag car builder near me who says he can 6 degree mine for a very good price he also has all the latest computer design equipment to do this and has done it before he tells me on a few aston martin race cars? if I dident take that route id go with the harvy gibbs one I think as they build track cars so must no what there doing!

Chris is a legend. Will always be 'Jipper Clarke' to me.
When you have this car finished Andy will pay for a run at Vmax if you want to max it out.

Don't forget to get brackets for the radiator as it won't fit back without them

Just got my brackets have not fitted the cooler yet as im modding a few bit for aero quip! But how do they fit? do they go inbertween the cooler and the chassis then the rad bolts to the brackets? or dose the cooler bolt in the normal holes and the brackets bolt to the rad holds then rad bolts to the brackets?
