Well that's interesting. I was pretty convinced the separate cores in series were the best because the counterflow could be properly utilised.. That one will need a much bigger pump IMHO than the tiny one on the ProAlloy website. - Its also very similar looking to the design of the core in mine - if better quality! Edit - assuming the end tanks aren't split so flow is 7 pass!

He actually sold it for spares :lol:

Not too far now i don't think. Dg has had a lot of set backs with fcuking up his back in a car accident ect and his Mrs finishing up uni and the little nipper as you can imagine my car being a bit of a development piece has taken a while. But lets be fair projects never come in on time really. I'm in no major rush as i know for sure that the end product will be epic.

Dg is a real perfectionist and i am glad to know that bits on my car he has redesigned more than 2/3 times. Which on a timescale side of things may not be the best but at least i know i am getting the best. So i guess it's worth the wait :)
