turbotrana Member 2,586 Member For: 22y 1m 8d Gender: Male Posted 01/05/06 01:45 AM Share Posted 01/05/06 01:45 AM its a piss off that the aircon condenser pipes are the way that they are, otherwise it would be alot easier to get a big core behind the front bar.I am looking at moving the whole radiator/condenser core assembly back towards the engine a little (15mm ) and rewelding.rerouting the aircon lines to make room.You can cut a little (or bend) the lip on the rear of the bar to make room but you difinately cant take out big chunks out of that bar. It is a structural component.Nevertheless I think a 600 x 300 x76 core should definately fit, I hope to get the 600x300x100 in there.Alternatively just rip the whole condenser core out and not worry about aircon Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/25023-will-i-get-this-to-fit/page/2/#findComment-376254 Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you mod those pipes. Did you reweld them, TIG or some other process.Also what thickness cooler, 76mm or 100mm. If its 76 do you think you would be able to get a 100mm thick one with a little massaging of the front bar.Regards Edited 01/05/06 02:13 PM by turbotrana Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/25023-will-i-get-this-to-fit/page/2/#findComment-376535 Share on other sites More sharing options...
