Thanks for explaining that all to me Ledsel. Having the original engine has really perked me up. I don't know how long it would have taken me to figure out the oil cooler plumbing. Definitely going to have a rad shop flush the cooler and lines out. No telling what's in there.

I'm guessing that the carrier I saw at the legion gathering last summer is a MK2(some pics below). I was drooling over it, she was beautiful. Might be my best bet to try and find out who owns it and see if I can get dimensions from it.

Presently mixed up in other projects, can't afford to do much to my carrier until spring. Phil

Even though your carrier is cut up the parts you need are the ones that are easier to make, Mostly flat plate . So it should be fun to do.
