It was made by TTC (cowboybebop on SF) and is no longer made afaik. i got it through a friend and paid $50 for it at the time. but i dont know how much theyd normally go for if you can find one

A little update.

Custom CNC valve covers (by ARZ)
Custom CNC water neck
Custom CNC CPS wheel for sensor and many many other misc brackets throughout. (Too many things to list)

Custom ATI damper

Custom dual pass radiator with 2 top feeds. (Ron's idea/design as he has the same)

 

[empera]

very nice duane, need a full pic of engine though.

 

[Poodles]

Moar!

 

[theKnifeArtist]

what's the benefit of the top feed rad?
oh and also..whats the benefit of a greddy T-belt? if its cheaper than OEM, then i understand..

 

[empera]

reinforced, strong....costs about 3-4 times wat a stocker costs...

 

[theKnifeArtist]

hah! does it last 3-4 times as long?
Doesn't last 180K miles? Why buy it?

Fel-Pro gaskets (no metal gasket)
New Toyota water pump
New Toyota timing belt
