Hi all

Could anyone with a chevy engine either post or pm me pictures of the cooling pipework that plumbs into the inlet manifold please, I'm running a Edelbrock aluminium dual plane manifold in a MKIII Sumo.

Cheers

I forgot to add that it is only the manifold I need pics of to see where the pipes run to, I also need a pic to see where the servo pipe goes to - any ideas where I can get the bung/thing that would screw into the manifold and slide/fit to the servo pipe?

Cheers again

I trust you! cheers coomers - where is your temp sender located? have you left it in the head or is that situated in the manifold?

Coomers. Looks good BUT one very important bit of advice! PLEASE change and move your fuel filter for a metal bodied one away from the top of the engine. The Plastic bodied AND the Glass bodied ones have been attributed to several fires/total losses of Cobs over the last few years They expand/contract with the heat under the bonnet and eventually crack, spraying fuel over the hot headers.

thanks purple ak advice taken any idea what filter i should use and where to purchase.

Quite a few people fit filter kings, not only do they look good but they can act as a pressure regulator and if you want then you can get them with a pressure gauge on top.

No worries Coomers, at the end of the day your cobra in tact is a tad more important to where I want to know where pipes are normally run too!! Just out of curiousity = where did you get the servo pipe made from?

Cheers
