Mark, do you run an expansion tank on the LT4 / LT5 swaps?? If so, what tank has worked for you?

TIA.

For the radiator and the intercooler system I do not run an overflow tank. The radiator has a small amount of air in it for expansion I do run an overflow tank. Not sure the brand. What ever will package. No tank for the intercooler system.

Mark... I know you run a dry sump in your cars.....As these supercharged motors create a lot of heat - Do you run an external oil cooler, if so, where do you mount it?? TIA

Sorry to be "that guy" with all the questions

It is built into the end tank of the C&R radiator. Oil to water heat exchanger.

Works great.

I also use a oil adaptor with a built in thermostat. Improved Racing makes one as well as Holley.

I would be interested to see your plumbing from the side of the block from the Holley thermostat piece up to the radiator. I'm interested in how you routed it and what you used to transfer the oil.

Thanks!

We will get some photos during assembly. Basically -10 AN hose. Fairly straight forward.
