Hi mate! Received your email. Am I right in guessing the schematics are for this unit?

I do like the look of this but have a couple of queries.

In diagram part D there is a cutout which I assume the cooler welds into. Given the dimensions there my cooler is too broad for the space and to cut it broader would also

shorten the height of that particular piece.

Another concern is having to remove the entire manifold to then remove the rocker cover. A bitch simply for tappet adjustment and the like.

My thinking was to weld the correct size pipe into the plennum and join cooler to plennum via silicon hose, thus facilitating easy removal for access to rocker cover.

The other matter is, how easy is it to roll the large section A down and around sections B?

Given that it is 4mm aluminium is it easily acheivable by tacking / heating / clamping / tacking and repeat?

The upshot is I like the look of the unit, far better than I had in mind, and will run with it if It can be done without the cutout in part D.

Perhaps I can simply weld in a piece of plate when it hits the ground here?

I will put it to my brains trust today and get back to you. When do you intend to place your order? Will fit in with you if I can get a definitive answer this end.

Thanks mate!
