Yea, (narrower) seems to be the best idea. Going to search for something in the morning @ the junk yard. Like a small compact car rad. I see this clear a day in my head, wish I was good at that photo thing.IJ. said:
I looked at that area but the plenum for the ITBs will be right there.

learning CNC isn't very hard.. It's justifying the price to buy one! You can probably take a college course in cnc and learn basic master cam 2d/3d then move on to surfaces and just build your experience. Thats all you can really do.. A book only shows you so much =). I use to make gears daily in class out of foam and aluminum or brass.
I had NEVER been hands on with a CNC before I did my retrofit and managed to make a part within 20 minutes of finishing it!
I think in my case not knowing that I can't do it that way saves me lots of time while I do it!

Went to Pull-A-Part today to look at some different cars. I understand what your saying about a tiny honda radiator. But I did find several good canidates from the Volvo,BMW and Audi crowd. The thing is my oil tank is about 22" overall in length, basically the same height as our radiator. So making it fit without a bit of surgery and making it look good at the same time may be a pain in other places.supra90turbo said:
I've seen road race cars with the tank in the hatch. The constant flushing sound IJ spoke of may be one of those things you learn to live with. This thing holds 5 gallons of oil!!!:aigo: Here is a what a basic five stage dry sump system looks like to give you guys an idea of what I'm up against. There are still things I need to complete this set up right. If I can get this tank under the hood the main thing is I will not need 100 yrds of braided (KILL KILL THE WALLET) line.supra90turbo said:
3 and a quarter inches to the accessory fan pair that go with the shroud,
5 and three eighths inches to the radiator itself.

how about putting it where your battery is/was. relocate battery.... or put it on the other side where the charcoal canister is or reroute intake and stick it there. maybe you already figured it out...but you mentioned wondering about a place to stick it....
It's just a thought...i know nothing about dry sump...if that is what your tanks if for (i quickly read some stuff....sorry if i'm off here....lol)

you always have the space next to the coolent tank inbetween the bumper and rad
you dont have an intercooler so that space is wasted

Those are good ideas. Thanks for the measurements. The battery side is pretty much taken up by the plenum for the ITBs and my little idea for fresh air intake from the hood:evil2: I could section out the area on the pass. side by the washer fluid. The nose area is kool but the tank would hang below the front skirt. Then the idea of weight 5 gallons of oil is heavy. The best place just might be in the hatch.:icon_conf :cry: :icon_conf
Alana, just a suggestion for sound deadening if it needs to be in the car somewhere. Check out this product. http://www.quietcar.net/
it brushes, rolls or sprays on and can be done in multiple coats. perhaps spraying the whole container with a few layers of this stuff would cut down the noise of the thing significantly. Some rubber mounts to the body would cut down vibration, resonance aswell I am sure.
Check out the demonstration videos on their site...it looks like it could be very effective for what you want to do. It's easier to work with, gets into small cracks and works better than dynomat. weight would be negligable aswell.
Hope that helps and best of luck with your project!

Going back a little... here are pics of my block after being "rocked".DEFIANT 7M said:Custom piston from Diamond Racing. They have a 4cc dome, gas ported, short skirt. We had to send the head and the head gasket to them to make the pistons. They used the head too digitize the combustion chamber into the CNC. They need the head gasket to get the center line and some other specs. With the stroke the displacement is 3.5L
