It took me maybe 90 min to get the motor down and most of that was spent screwing around with pressure washing the bottom of the motor & car off. I also drained the power steering, oil and radiator before starting. There was about a gallon of water in the bottom of the crank case. |

What was the problem with the front breather the way it was setup with the radiator leaned forward? I was planning on doing that some time in the future but I'd like to know what trouble you ran into.
Oh, and if you convert it to a CMC car and are willing to sell the rear Penskes cheap, let me know (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

I was planning on doing that some time in the future but I'd like to know what trouble you ran into. I'm not a 100% sure what the the problem was or if there was a problem at all to begin with. The radiator placement was a bit too far forward for my tastes tho. There wasn't a lot of 'crush' room up front with it laid out that way. I think its going to be a lot simpler to stand the radiator back up and put a bit more of a bumper in the front.
