Oil Cooler

Okay last weekend I got the brackets for the oil cooler made and welded into the car, the hoses are made and the whole mess is installed.  That took a while.  I spent a lot of time just staring at it until I settled on the final spot for all the parts.  I'll put a pic up shortly.  I cut the end of the turbo housing off and welled in a bit of a bend so that it is angled towards the intercooler properly.  There is a 7a thermostat housing on the way so I can fabricate the neck that I need.  The AAN neck is plastic, where the 7a is aluminum.  So keep that in mind if you will need to change this part.  Maybe if I'm lucky all of the stock radiator hoses from the 944 will hook right up to this motor.  I also started on the bracket to locate the IAC valve, but my allergies got so bad I had to go lay down.  That sucked and tomorrow I head out of town for work.  Oh and there is only one hose left to make and the fuel system will be finished.  I will have to post those pics also.  Lots has been getting done, except for posting on the blog.
