Is there a diagram anywhere of how to hook it all up? How labor intensive is it?

Try this: http://www.thechicagogarage.com/forum/marauder-tech/117121-my-5-8-cooling-mod.html. $60 is a good price on this !

The best way to hook it up is straight to the heater core. The steel pipe on the passenger side goes away and the cot gets capped or welded shut.
You need about 20 bucks worth of hoses and clamps

[Jeronimojc]

I'll buy. PM sent.

Better to do this mod now, versus when a piston is cooked, or a dropped valve seat!

When I do mine I'll go straight to the heater core with the head outlet, eliminating the COT feed.

Has anyone used these caps? I might look for a welder but I think capping for now is fine.

[Zack]

You need 5/8" and they are sold at any auto parts store.
I'd find a silicone cap if I was you, those wear out rather quickly

Yep. Me, too. My foxbody is driving me nuts! Still trying to track down the gremlins! :mad2:

Should the cooling mod be done with say an On3 kit or modified COT in advance of getting boosted? Or, are they two totally unrelated things and I would only be saving one burp instead of two? :rolleyes:

7 & 8 cylinder death is this related to why there is little to no smoke that comes out of passenger side exhaust pipe?

[Zack]

7 & 8 cylinder death is this related to why there is little to no smoke that comes out of passenger side exhaust pipe?

Have no clue what you're trying to ask.

[Mc Merc]

I have noticed there is a always more exhaust smoke coming out more on drive side then the passenger side exhaust tip.is this because 7&8 runn hotter?

[Zack]

The car has an H pipe, think about that for a minute.

[Mc Merc]

Ok.my thought on h pipe would be to equal out exhaust not favor one side

Get your fittings installed before summer hits.

Had the cowling off and noticed one of the plastic hose connectors was leaking from the cooling mod I did. Nothing to do with the mod parts here. It cracked. Strange. Glad I noticed it.

[Zack]

I have 2 sets of cooling mods available. They are the 2 fitting version for eaton swaps (or go to the hardware store and pick up a 3/4 Pex Tee and use it on NA or any other setup)

I am out of fittings, and really don't have the interest in buying and making more.

$60 shipped for 2 fittings.

If you want to tie into the heater hose, you will need to buy a 3/4" pex Tee from the hardware store, or any other 5/8" T for coolant.

I don't have an install thread.

I'll just list steps:
Remove Wiper Cowl
Remove upper and lower manifold.
Drain Coolant
Remove expansion plugs with a punch
Clean bores well, removing factory sealant too.

Fitting with T goes on the drivers side, the right angle fitting on the passenger.
Test fit the positioning of the fittings and decide how your connecting hose will be routed.
Lightly coat the outside of the new fittings with silicone.
To install: find a large punch, and drive the fitting in uniformly until it is flush with the cylinder head. You will need to move the punch around the fitting to get it to seat evenly.

Tee into the heater core hose closest to the passenger side. It helps to find a right angle heater hose to attach to the drivers side fitting. Just go in the hose aisle at the parts store to find one.

That about sums it up.

Every picture I've seen of these the T fitting was on the drivers side. Why is this? It seems to me it would make a neater install the other way around. Does it promote better circulation with the T on the drivers side?

[massacre]

Nobody should be worrying about installing these. If you literally can swing a hammer, you can do it.
10 times easier than installing some of fancy stuff like I have, works about the same.

N/A = Naturally Aspirated

If you have a Marauder with no supercharger or turbocharger, your N/A

[Zack]

I'm accepting orders via paypal @ zackmcgrath at hotmail.com

If you have an eaton swap, and will be eliminating the hose from the COT to the heater core, you need 2 fittings @ $60

If you are anything else, it is $65 for 3 fittings.

Have you ever thought about making the front crossover delete parts?

[SergntMac]

Hello Zack.

I know it is late in the season, but I am trying to catch up. I do need your rear cooling kit for an N/A car, perhaps you have some inventory left over? If so, I will pay-pal the 65 bucks immediately.

Also, my cross-over pipe is shot. I am reluctant to even try, looks like rust is holding it together. Any parts on hand? Any suggestions for improvement?

Thanks, y'all be safe.

[Zack]

No crossover tubes but I do have a cooling mod.

You can buy a COT delete kit from ON3 performance in place of the COT, or put out a want ad.

Hi Zack, thanks for your input on the KVR disc replacement issue. The GT500 rotors are a great option with a little bit of shimming. Wondered if you had experience with this COT delete kit. ON 3 references the MM. Like to see a full install before I purchase. Stock plumbing is a rats nest. Tube is going blow soon. WEEPING its coolant away. Thanks, Stan

What happens after that, specifically

What happens after that, specifically

you lose compression on that cylinder, may even hit the bent valve with piston since these are interference engines. so at min. a head job.
