I don’t think we considered the T56 top gear situation. We are changing from a QC to a Ford 9” for that reason. Something else for us to consider. On the cooling , we are not going for a record on this first build and runs. We are hoping to make 130mph runs, and MAYBE, a 150, if all the stars are aligned.
We are a group of Hot Rodders and Rod and Custom builders that have always had a Bonneville on our bucket list. A couple of us are looking old age in the eye, so now is the time, we think.
What are your thoughts on a heat exchanger for engine cooling?
This engine was donated to us from a very low mileage Cobalt SS. That fitted in with our budget!
One of the 6 involved has just installed a non blown version in his Model A Tudor sedan.
Maybe we will be
Regards and thanks for input,
