3HE coolant pipes solutions

[urbantuckerman]

Hi all, just fitted a 3HE motor to my 3en2. Unfortunately the top hose from the 600 rad I sourced exits the front of the radiator which meant a visit to my friendly local breaker (Roosters of Stanley, cheers lads) and a rummage through their scrap pile. The resultant home brewed solution is a bit of a bodge, especially as i had to connect a couple of bits together with 22mm copper plumbing pipe to get the required 180 degree bend. This did however give me a place to solder in some smaller copper tube to take the small coolant pipe from the oil filter housing. It works but it aint pretty. I was hoping someone had solved this problem in a more elegant way? Any suggestions? Thanks.

Is that the oil warmer ? its between the oil filter and the engine ?

Try talking to Kayla on here-she's done a few 400/600 conversions!

Yeah it's the oil warmer. Thanks for the advice, I will try to pm her.

Have a look at a 600 manual you might need the 600 radiator, I think it has more take offs than the 400
