So I am still missing the 70mm radiator/shroud and spal fans and the canned tune.

Figure out how to install an second oil cooler as well.

I also received the oil baffle pan but due to the oil relocation kit this might not clear it will have to see.

Oil baffled pan is in, the oil kit relocation gets in the way so will need to find somewhere else to install

You're going to have a problem b/c the SS lines were made for the oil filter adaptor to go right where you have it.

Ignore the oil filter it was there just for mock up. Everything got relocated correctly to clear the baffled oil pan.



In addition to the 25row w spal fan oil cooler I had a 34 row installed on passenger side. I might not need a spal fan here since the Stillen bumper has 2 side vents





Car is now done but waiting on GTM to ship my radiator/fans/shroud and email canned tune and should be ready to fire up.

That whole front is going to be uninstalled again just to get the radiator to fit. When they put mine on 6 months ago, Sam said they had them on the shelf and ready to go. Hopefully they don't take too long getting it out. Who knows, maybe he blew some smoke up my @ss to get me to buy it lol.

Yeah no choice, installer wanted to make sure the whole kit fit fine, only a minor snags due to installing other parts and we weren't sure it was compatible etc, no fault to the kit. Installer did say the kit went in very well and was impressed on the quality.

Just spoke with Sam, it should be mailed out today then just wait for can tune and ready to fire up.

Good to know about the GTM oil pan and SC relocation.
Was it difficult to move somewhere else?

Call Joe or Seb. You have different needs than most of us cause as I recall you plan to track it a lot.

No but have to buy new lines, waiting on them to arrive. Since I was getting new lines to run dual oil cooler 25 row in driver side and 34 row in passenger, needed new lines anyways. The coolers will need to be run in series and not parallel (better cooling) but due to both units not being the same size one could overrun the other in parallel config.

Some more progress pictures.

End of today all oil cooler lines custom cut and installed. The first pic you can see how they relocated the oil kit so it doesn't hit the gtm oil pan.

Shop started to install Phunk's fuel stave fix should be done tomorrow.

Gtm radiator and fans etc should arrive tomorrow.

Need to install softer rear springs in the rear, new spl control arm up from thanks to Corner3!! Also replace driver rear axle (cv joint is almost blown, this is my 2nd one) I bet the cv joint is binding due to being too low at the track. Load can tune, later hit the dyno for full tune.
