Subi conversion # 3


So. ..... I ended up keeping the ute and have got some energy to put into it....

This will be a EJ20 install with the usual Aeroflow hardware and some sweet sandrail inspiration for the radiator. Had to fab up some struts to stiffen up the gearbox.
I need to make a false ute floor to accomodate the height of Subi manifold and throttle body...running hard line fuel line from front to back and return to tank....al fun stuff :lol::crazy::lol:

Nice work, rear mounted radiators can be a challenge to get working right, see how you go

My Kombi ute with 3.8L V6 had the radiator in the back of the tray, lost half the space of the tray and the engine ran hot as well.
