That Caltrac looks neat. Do you have any part numbers of that or was it re-made to fit.

Front of the car is apart for the last time prior to paint,
Cutting the lower grill area out and moving the oil coolers forward another inch, which will allow me to fit the two slim line pusher fans againt the inter cooler to help the rad fans cooling the rad in the summer if need be,
rather do it now and be safe rather than wait to the summer and it over heats and has been painted,
Also as planned while the rad is out the top corner opposite the top hose we are fitting a 10mm bleed pipe which will go back to the header tank as per the Audi rad we were using, to make any air trapped vents back to the header tank and not trapped in the engine etc,
