Sweet ride. Have you had any problems cooling the engine and what radiator are you using?

well she goes like stink ill say that...but there are complications: there were complications when i took those pics
She does get hot, but im thinking an extra oil cooler and some ducting from the rear windows will help.
maybe even duct some more air from the horn grills over the rad
The exhaust is popping, well, banging like somebody firing a shotgun! so need to sort that
I have a feeling the engine isnt perfect....never has been
need a new clutch too......ate through a stocker in no time!
so engine out, new clutch, possibly an uprated gearbox, new engine, new battery (lol) and some ducting over the oil cooler and radiator!

hey there dubber91 nice look ride you got there and a nice looking conversion, the engine looks like a series 4 rx7 rotor if i am correct i have
recently done a similar conversion and had no trouble with cooling the engine even sitting in peakk traffic for hours on end. I know this is a very
old thread but any updates on the car would be great.
Love is a Rotary baja bug
Just be carefull ,, something dangerous is lurkin in My garage
ready to burst out in a fit of Big Hp, high boost baja Rage .
