Hey guys, I noticed that the sc300 has the coolant tank between the bumber and radiator... Is it possible to swap the radiators + tanks on the 300 for the 400? The reason I want to do it it becuase I dont like where the coolant tank is on the 400 and it will give me just a little more room in...

Thanks lex! Hey steve when you get a chance can you take a few pics of the front once you get done.. I want to check a few things out... I need to get an idea on some of the cleanances. If I flip my manifolds I dont know if theres enough room on the driverside to run the pipe... If I join...

Sounds good. Yep I'm hoping to knock it out before december. I'm waiting on the fan pulley for the LS400 fan bracket and the Cat flanges to fab my up-pipe.

Thats great new steve, glad to hear its finally running!! Where did you have the BOV located before that caused your car to stall?

Haha why else. The grandmaster lextreme showed me the error of my ways! Now how about sending me that fan bracket pulley and cat flanges so i can get started. lol

Lookin good! Standing by for more pics =P

EDIT: Change of plans. We're flipping the manifolds and joining the two from the front rather than behind.

I was thinking.. If i do decide to do twins later wouldn't it be a better idea to not connect the exhaust manifolds and just run the turbo off one bank... I could then build a normal manifold. I know its not as efficient but it seems like a better game plan... OR I could even flip one of...

Today I started getting pieces off the motor to get it ready to go on the engine stand. I took off the Fan bracket which I will be using to eliminate the hydraulic fan. All I need now is the pulley... Mr. Lex!

Im going to be using the fan from the Ford Taurus 3.8L. It moves about 4000 cfm on the high setting.

Thanks for the info, I just spoke to scott and he mentioned I can use the LS fan bracket & pulley and that will take care of everything. I can then remove the lines and im good to go. I just need to find out if the spare LS motor I have has that fan bracket and pulley that I need.

So in order to block off the pump you remove the pulley and put a cover plate and run another pulley. Is the pulley one of those 20 dollar universal pulleys from autozone? What do I do with the lines if I run the aftermarket pulley? Do I drain whatever fluid is left?

Yes im keeping the AC and PS

I've gone through the threads here on this forum and CL. I'm a bit confused about something... I don't want to go through all this pulley madness and changing belts and all this whatever... If I simply remove the the hydraulic fan on the sc4... what else would I have to do? I read that I...

Those manifolds are SEXY!

A good emanage tune, coupled with a new exhaust and headers will definetly net you some power. Combine that with the BFI and you've already got substantial gains. It has been done, I think a few of the aussie guys have dyno sheets and a few guys on the CL forums.

I think it went hotwire after 96. I haven't seen any 95's with a hotwire...

Hmmm I wonder whats under the bag... I think it is... Oh no.... YES! We finally got the spare 1uz (from an LS400) it was sitting in a friends backyard so I decided to put it to use and help me mock up my turbo setup for the SC. Im going to be ordering the flanges from Mr. Lextreme...

Sounds hot. Keep us posted and don't forget the pics!

Anyone know how you can tell a karman MAF from a toyota hot wire MAF? Are there any physical differences? Part Numbers? Doesnt have to be for a single car, I guess any car. Lets use the SC300/400...
