    That engine bay is definitely pretty. Not sure if the tucked radiator would leave room for an intercooler and an oil cooler in my dreams but its very nice. Can you fit an electric fan on the front? An Hose is slick. Have you made a video on building these? I would really miss my AC.

    Dual pass pretty much guarantees that the entire surface area of the cooling core is utilized, with a single pass the corners rows can become stagnant. The biggest thing about a dual pass is that it facilitates the possibility of both the inlet and outlet being on the same side of the radiator, with a single pass this can *technically* be done but is incredibly inefficient. Been on the fence about this rad for a while, might just go for it... just really wish they would've shrouded the E fan instead of leaving the whole back of the radiator open. Not sure if you're open to suggestions from randoms on the internet but looking at your setup, the upper hose is basically begging for a custom baller swirl pot install there with the radiator cap relocated on top... Just saying. Lol Digging the content dude, new subscriber here.

    • @_unclemuscles
      @_unclemuscles Місяць тому

      Thanks for the added info man! And as for the shroud from what i gather is. Shrouds help cool the radiator better at idle and low speeds, but can be a restriction on cooling at normal speeds since a shroud is basically a wall. Without the air will be able to pass through easier without relying on the fan being the central point of heat extraction.. Granted i have no ran any tests on this theory but it makes sense to me🤷‍♂️

  • @AlecMoody

    This is the first time I have seen someone weigh their s54 swapped e36. I'm going to weigh mine (has almost zero intentional weight reduction on it so far) on a friends corner balance scales soon and start a spreadsheet to track changes to the car and its weight. For batteries: I have had lifepo4 in a street car before and it can be a hassle to live with. Also your hold down hardware/bracket weight starts to become a significant percentage of your battery weight so consider looking at that too. If you go that route make sure you aren't pulling any current when the car is off or you have a battery cutoff switch that is easy enough to access that you will actually use it. It's very easy to kill one of these from over discharging and they have comparatively very low capacities. Also I haven't looked into brands in a while but shop around and try to find some dissembled images of different batteries. The braille batteries I have seen internals of were really bad + expensive. I haven't seen anyone tear down an antigravity battery but I'm sure someone has. Realistically these battery companies are buying cells or pouches from the same factories as everyone else and assembling them and marking them up different amounts. I had an alien motion and was happy with the cost and construction quality. If you can find a large enough cylindrical cell based battery I think those are a better route than prismatic pouches but they are less common now.
