Makdaddys S&H Turbo Build ( SLOW)

[weather man]

I put the Ford Racing fan on to give a little more room. Hopefully, I can report results next week.

That would be great I was also considering that fan option
Im curious to hear about your results, u still running Zimmers hot side right

How is the build going?

 

[Makdaddy]

i haveng had thd plastic piece that goes under the radiator from the bumper to the radiator support since I put my turbo kit on

Thanks Josh
that rules that out
My fans are rated at 1250 CFM each
is that about the same as the dual setup u are running?

Zimmers hotside with a dual wastegate setup. .Piping is done and may repowdercoat, depending on leadtime. Hope to have on the dyno next week.

 

[JoshK]

Mine are 1300cfm each IIRC

Close enough
Plus you are running like i am no rad cover on top and no belly pan underneath
you have no issues of the car running @230

So im thinking air lock in my block

maybe pull the screw off the top of the crossover pipe going into the engine and make sure fluid is all the way up into the threads and then once it is put it back on.

Thanks Guys
Im glad Im back on it
But Ill admit If I cant figure out the heat issue , ( Hot when AC is on)
Well I donno what Im gonna do.
I have a Riesch 170 T stat going in, Ill be looking at all of the hoses for Flow issues, and my last ditch will be to put that stock GT500 Fan and shroud in.
If that dosent fix it, Its beyond my scope of experience.

Waiting for weather man to chime in On how his temps are running after his build, I think he went to that shroud and fan as well

You should have powder coated it. It has less chance of bridgeing the gap on the fins.

 

[Bobby]

With the piping painted it is going to look sick.

Well Crap I think its gonna be ok. My Iat's were always pretty decent we will see

Thanks
I need to get it all squared away, we have more to paint under the hood, but I wanted to get it on the road and figure out the cooling issues
It's never really done lol
