Re: Project: Mavro Gato (56K ... Get a cup of coffee)

Aside from putting my wife's new go-kart together today, I also manage to clean out the garage of a lot of old stuff taking up space. I found the source of my coolant leak and fixed it (the band clamp was too big and I replaced it with the correct size clamp). I and also managed to get in some fabrication on the "hot" side piping!

Below are some pictures of the most critical part of the hot-side piping ... the merge collector where both banks meet.









I also got my TiAL BOV and my intercooler in the mail today ... more to follow tomorrow!
