Hi guys,

Could any one help me with my heater !!!
Ive removed the engine bay plastic vents and fan. I know the plate needs to go across that area but does more come out of the hole? Or does it all come out from the behind the dash inside the car? How much comes out?
Before i break it !! could any one give me some tips.

Hi nick

thats a great bit of advice

but I'm sure richard would like to do the work himself so he gets to know his way round the car!!!

Paul you take life to to seriously its meant to be a joke !!!

The heater box with the matrix inside comes down inside the car from under the dash. Once you've taken out the fixing screws that fasten it to the bulkhead and the 2 water pipes from the matrix and the wires to the control levers it should come out ok. It may then be an idea to join the 2 pipes together that originally went to the heater matrix to an additional little cooler radiator of some sort to help with engine cooling.

Cheers guys,
Im glad you said it comes out thro the dash as the plates being welded on at the mo. Ill have it out before Rockingham. Thanks AK

Funny you should say that Steve,
When i came thro the blue mist i was having a little chuckle to myself about that very film. I think going high would have ment over the pit wall tho!!
Cole was right tho ...... you can see alot from espn or as we know it youtube Andy/Adam.
I know wot you thinking Nick, maybe i should stop thinking funny stuff in my head and think about racing faster.
