OK I have sent out the 90Deg fittings and each person who asked for one should have a PM from me. Anybody else that wants one that did not get a PM from please let me know. Thanks guys!
I had a PM asking if he could order the 90 Deg fitting on his own. For the group yes you can do that but it will not be the same as the one I am providing. The only real difference is the color of the anodizing will not match. So if you want to go that route send me a PM and I can send you...
I think the best for those like you is to have me send out the 90 Deg fitting. As far as the return of the other parts go you can send them back first class mail. Should be $2-$3 at the most. I can refund that upon receipt.
The kits are moving ahead nicely. We are expecting the CNC parts in 2 weeks which is the real hold up. I am deciding whether to anodize the adapter to match the fittings or leave it natural aluminum to match the crossover and the radiator hose flange. Everything else is basically ready except...
Anybody who wants the 90Deg fittings please send back the 'T' and the AN6 90Deg to the same address we shipped from. The 'T's are going to be ready to go out Monday.
So just to head this off at the pass here are the options if you don't have or don't want to add an overflow tank:
1. You guys can get an AN-6 Female Cap locally and simply cap the extra end of the 'T' and not use the AN-6 push lock 90Deg fitting in the kit.
2. I can send you a 90 Deg fitting...
OK guys if you are running a HMMWV crossover but not running an overflow tank like the HMMWV does then we will have to block off that port or change the fitting to a simple 90Deg vs the 'T'. If you are running an overflow tank then this line goes to the tank.
I would suggest considering...
I live up at high altitude and have cold winters. I have electric heaters on the oil pan and tranny pan, then I have a supplemental KATZ coolant heater tank/pump that circulates coolant inside the block and heads. I also have a fuel filter heater. You will never believe how easy these start...
Kits have been shipping out at a pretty good pace and for now we are in stock if anybody needs one. Lots of good feedback coming in. We had one fitting leak which we immediately replaced and are waiting to get back to see what happened there but beyond that everything has been received with...
That is the kit that is finishing up the first short run and we are taking pre-orders on. You get it at the discount price right now. Full production after the first run will be a bit of a wait.
OK Gentlemen,
Like we did with the HMMWV kits we are going to start with a small run as we tool up for production. There are a couple of distinct differences in the HMMWV kits and CUCV based kits. The biggest is the lack of proper return in the CUCV crossover which necessitated a custom...
I will PM you the details. We take PayPal for everyone's security. Thanks
Napa has the 180deg thermostats, I dont have a part number handy but get the correct one with the rubber section.
So based on our testing and measurements if your system is seeing 215deg (assuming the gauge is correct) then the front cylinders water jacket area is around 190deg and the rear is around 240deg. The overall temp of 205-215deg is really not bad but the rear cylinders are cooking without the...
