In my old vt i used some turn buckles to hold my sub box in, worked a treat and easy to move if needed.

Mate of mine has a 100mm PWR cooler running with all the factory fans,AC etc. what makes u think u need more room?

Im looking to set it back as far as i can without triming the front bar. Thats all im worried about.

Ok so im looking to clear some room under my front bar to mount a intercooler. My question is can i remove the condenser fan and still keep my ac running properly? I have a 18″ shrouded thermo on my radiator that i can adjust to come on at a temp that i set. Would this help out the ac when it pulls air in?

Most modern cars just use a pressure sensor on the AC Line to turn on the engine fans..

I understand how they are turned on. What im trying to figure out is can i run my ac with only using my thermo fan?

From memory and i could be wrong but one line is for the vents and ac controls that runs into the tree on the back of the manifold. It sits under the brake booster vacuum hose.

The other line should join the one way valve that runs to the inlet manifold looks black and white.

Bugger sorry to hear mate, its these set backs that make it so much better when its all done and your cruzing.

Hows the sub box going?

[HDN05LParticipant Canberra ACTVS Olympic Edt 383 stroker Ute View build HERE Member since: March 2, 2015 Posts: 289]

You are a machine!

Maybe time for a hard earned rest.

[HDN05LParticipant Canberra ACTVS Olympic Edt 383 stroker Ute View build HERE Member since: March 2, 2015 Posts: 289]

Wow thats some serious work getting done, will def be keeping an eye on this!

[HDN05LParticipant Canberra ACTVS Olympic Edt 383 stroker Ute View build HERE Member since: March 2, 2015 Posts: 289]

Mate love the progress always a good feeling getting things in primer then colour.

Out of interest what size intercooler are you running? Im just about to order one.

 

[HDN05LParticipant Canberra ACTVS Olympic Edt 383 stroker Ute View build HERE Member since: March 2, 2015 Posts: 289]

I have started collecting parts to setup an intercooler for the super charger.

I have looked at ways to neaten up the holes that i will need to drill each side of the bay to run the pipes.

I have come up with drilling a 3.25″ hole and then using a 3″ v band clamp flange to neaten the hole up.

<span style=”background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);”></span>

Because im running 2.5″ pipe, it will have a 1/4″ gap inside the flange so that should leave plenty of room for movement.

<span style=”background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);”></span>
