Never had to find a spot to stick stuff b4, got pictures and nowhere to put em!
Modding the heater core was easy compared to this!)
For the pre-picture entertainment....
1) was the core as received - preztel tubing hands in front of core (makes it kinda hard to install)
2) is badly focused view w/ tubes removed but gets the point across
(note the oval holes in the tanks in your imagination
)
3) is final product shined up and w/ new 2" pieces of tubing sticking straight out like we want.
finned area is exactly the width of 2 120mm fans! (very convenient for shroud making).
More when I figure out how to get pictures in here (suggestions appreciated)
