The three core gives you a fair bit more fluid volume so should be pretty close to ok unless you are really working it hard - maybe add a bit thermo fan or two if she is getting too warm - plenty of room on grill side.
Looking great Bumpar

Coming together nice.

Cheers guys, FJWALLY there will be a 16" thermo going behind grille so yeah should be fine!
Did a bit more today! Really got motervation atm!!
Exhaust system in, steering connected up, sorting through tubs for bits and pieces, heres a few pics

Really moving along now Brett, looks great.
The pic of the exhaust cross pipe looks like it'll get in the way of the tail shaft? Probably just the angle of the pic?

Glad to see you've got your mojo happening Bumpar. She's looking the goods mate. WA 2018??

Just the angle trev, Plenty of room aboveit for tail shaft, thats my thought process craig, this has a bigger tank than my blue wagon, and will be allot nicer to drive im sure, so fingers crossed

Plenum cover panel on yesterday

And thought might as well put bonnet letters on the bonnet, turns out the ones i bought were bloody EK boot ones!!! Spewing as there bloody mint

Get radiator and feul tank sorted this week i hope

Cheers guys, yeah original radiator stephan but it has been 3 cored, green wagon had the subframe cut out and had a HR radiator in it when she had the grey, but i love the original look, dad's FB is running a 253 with a 3 cored original so i cant see there being any dramas! It is amazing how many cant believe it

Onya Bumpar,
Well I'll be buggered! Good on the old radiator

Regards
Stephen

It's looking great mate, I bought a set of bonnet letters from a place in Vic that were advertised as NOS , got them to put on the ute and they were boot letters as well

Can you edjamacate me boys snd explain the difference? I thought they were interchangeable on EK at least.

What i found was the pins on the H are 27mm apart for the boot, bonnet is about 24mm, so FB/EK bonnet letters tge same but EK boot are different! Would have made sense to make them all the same lol

Thanks bumper

Hi folk,
with my old bus, which has not been touched body wise since factory - the letters on the bonnet have an open "E" - on the boot, the space between the legs of the "E" has a recessed infill.

frats,
Rosco

Cheers Rosco
Per my avatar. Now I'm trying to remember but that photo must have been from the bonnet of my ek 215. Also supports Bumpers image of the boot ones. Well I never!
Cheers

Yes, Clay - I first found this out 30 years back when my rear "E" started to get the terrible white metal "blisters" in those inserts.... the front one doesn't - because it's open.

frats,
Rosco
