akakubi Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Mine are not very detailed, unfortunately. One of the members here has a very detailed website on his Duratec install. Do a search in the archives to get there. Sorry I could not be of more help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamQ Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 With a Raceline water rail and the standard Caterham radiator, I used the three hoses suggested by Simon Bell here (Caterham part nos 594-5, 594-3 and 73154) along with a dose of bling consisting of a 3" and two 12" × 32 mm connecting pipes from Demon Tweeks (part nos AHF093 and AHF095) (I think one of the 12" could have been replaced with a 6"). I also needed a blanking cap for the metal outlet from the standard thermostat housing. We did away with the expansion bottle and ended up with the arrangement that can be seen here, here, here and here. (Please excuse the state of the wiring (and everything else) - it's still a work in progress!) There's a picture showing the position of the exhaust hole here - it really needs to be about half an inch bigger all round. Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
