In this pic, is the long L bracket attached to the radiator custom made or where did you source it?

Thank you.

Sorry I don’t understand your question. The picture is of the dry sump tank.

The radiator was made by C&R. The car was modified a lot to make it fit.

Hey Mark. Great build per usual...

I’m wondering how you check the oil with the dry sump tank in that location. Do you use a custom dipstick through the fitting on the firewall? Would a sight glass welded on the side of the tank work?...

Thank you for all the information and ideas you provide to this forum.

LED bulb trial testing.

Many LED bulbs are too bright as running lights (Gordon’s Camaro)

I wanted LED bulbs closer to stock brightness for running lights.
