STAGE 4: Phase 4 '"Cage work and some part love"'

Beer of choice this week is Stone Brewery: 'Stone Sublimely Self-Righteous Ale'. I personally love almost anything from Stone Brewery so kind of bias when it comes to them.. But this beer is really good, has a strong bitter taste, so be prepared.

So I got some new stuff the other day that I am really stoked about. First is this sexy *** ASD Hydo E-Brake that I am going to be using. ASD attention to detail is just on another level in my opinion.

I mean just look at the handle itself, Man so sick

Comes with fittings already installed just need to run lines, which is perfect timing cause we are redoing all my brake lines..

Next was my power steering cooler. I did not need nothing big cause the KRC pump really does a good job. So this would work perfect.


Also got it with the fittings so I could run all my AN lines to it.

Next up is my sick custom built Radiator from Ron Davis Radiators.. When i came by he already had it installed so I could not get any out of the car shots..

Ron Davis makes some sick radiators, you can get a custom built one or one that is already made for your application. I went with the custom route.

Double pass radiator with custom -20AN fittings. Oh yea!!

No fill cap

Built in Oil Cooler. This radiator is 3 inches thick,, looks huge...

I think it fits so nicely in there with a little kick slant to it...lol

Now I am trying to figure out how I am going to run my Intake. I could run it straight like most Vetts run theirs or. Run it to the side and down like a cold air setup.. Thoughts?

Going to run it to this custom tank we are Fabing up.. All Coolant lines are going here..

Looks so clean peaking thought the headlight whole..

Okay let's raise this car up to see how it looks from underneath.. My car looks so sad in its stock form, can't wait to finish her up..

Fits like a glove.. Man this thing is going to get some nice direct air flow.. So stoked

Nice to see something there instead of just air...lol

Now I just have to get some nice Spal 12" fans and I think I will be set...

I think once I paint the bay and tube chassis I will just polish this up and leave it silver... Thoughts?
Okay now for the prices..
ASD Universal Hydraulic E-Brake (16" Pull-Back): $179.00
Power Steering Cooler: $29.00
Ron Davis Custom Radiator: $800.00
Total price so far: $10,097.16
NEXT WEEK: STAGE 4: Phase 5 '"Cage work and Hydo mount"'

Thanks for the kind words.. I was thinking about a ram air setup cause there is a perfect spot right above the Rad.. and I could cut a slit out of the front bumper too. What you think?Originally posted by Chuckdee View PostLove the setup so far, i think running the air intake on the side would be nice, but have you thought of a ram air intake option, just cut out a vent in the hood?

Thanks bro.. And this Rad is crazy ill

still looking good dude
You like the stone brewery beers? I was making a custom 6 pack one time and bought one cause of the cool label, and it tasted awful
way too bitter for my girly taste lmao
I think you should go for the most direct air route as possible. I wouldn't do the cold air intake through the bottom or w/e. Maybe like do an intake box directly through that radiator? Seems like a ton of room and tons of airflow.

Oh Stone brewery is a required taste, very bitter.. but good.. They have others thought that are not so bitter..
And I was thinking of doing a Ram air setup like most Vetts..

which ones do they have that aren't so bitter, I frequent the local total wine cause it's close to campus so I'm there all the timeOriginally posted by Royal_T View PostOh Stone brewery is a required taste, very bitter.. but good.. They have others thought that are not so bitter..

also, Ya, I say do the ram air setup like the vettes have. I tried looking on google to find a good picture, but I couldn't find what I was thinking. Like I would do a ram air like they use, but I would use maybe a bigger box/tubes you know? Cause they're kinda limited on size/space they can use for their box but you could make a huge box/tubes with the space you have you know?
