[ian godfrey]

good work, you're are racing ahead. Welding looks good too.
have you settled on bump stops for the rear arms yet?

[DORIGTT]

No I haven’t. Any recommendations?

I used a generic bolt on bump stop, I will take a photo, it bolted through the top

Hey effvee,

I would imagine the Porsche 993 would be capable of rather high cold oil pressures that would be similar, if not greater than our 4 pot engines can produce. That being said, here are some photos I just took of the cooler for you with a tape measure for scale.

Let me know if you need anything else.

First photo - width of the core / unit
Second photo, thickness of the core
Third photo - overall height of the core
Fourth photo - overall width including mounting tabs
Fifth photo - total height of the cooler

Wonderful, thank you.

I've always been a huuuuuuge fan of the Germanlook style, one of the biggies has been the use of Porsche wheels, which obviously means Porsche brakes. I decided to run 944T as they've been used quite a bit in various builds I've seen. Frank @franklinsvwerks in Kent, WA took my lowered spindles, mated them with 944T spindles to allow me to 'bolt-on' the 944T brakes up front.

I installed a magnesium cased Porsche 915 gearbox into the Raketenhase, but realized the CV's wouldn't clear the frame horns. Since I 'hate' cutting metal, I figured I'd try to raise the transmission to clear the horns with some 'spacers' I made from some washers to give me close to .25".

Still may cut the horns after my plasma cutter arrives. I like how clean they cut.

Stay tuned.
