On a closer look it would appear that ford are now using a slightly different cooler WITH PLASTIC END TANKS.Bunna buddy old pal is this true.It was definitely a stock t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only ran up 22-rwkw, has anyone seen this before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vevapower Waiting for the 1st N/A 12! Donating Members 2,533 Member For: 16y 10m 27d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 12/11/10 05:51 AM Share Posted 12/11/10 05:51 AM Yeah all the late FG xrt's have them. I actually asked one of Ford Reps at the Ford stand at the Sydney Motor show why they made the change and he had no idea why. He was going to ask one of the senior guys but never did! What was really funny was the his immeadiate response to me when I asked him was "maybe it's for weight" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclewal Donating Members 583 Member For: 14y 3m 18d Posted 12/11/10 05:53 AM Share Posted 12/11/10 05:53 AM I have the exact same build and mine has plastic end tanks, not sure about the cat, but it does look like it has some shielding or something or other around it. IC and cat are going in the bin as soon as I get my stuff from Rapid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
