Option B
So I have problems with air in my OTTP heat exchanger right now and I figured I'd do the Option B.
I have one question tho. Is it worth it to do if i don't have dual pass. I do NOT plan on getting it.
I'm probably going to piece together my own kit.
I did my own research for about an hour. So now it's time for questions.
Any input will help me guys... Thanks.
***UPDATE***7/08/10
how are you option b guys routing your hose from the surge tank to the T fitting?
i have my goin all the way down under the washer fluid tank and back up to the fitting. is that right? bc i got air up in there right now... goin to try and evacuate the air with a radiator machine later. but again any input would work please.!
and the orifice tube of .40, i dont have. how important is it to have that?

when hooking up the bleeder part of the overflow tank and the heat exchanger is there something i need to put in there? i kept reading something about a .40 orifice. is that just the brass fitting or is there something else along with it i need to order from CED's kit.

It'll look like this
may come in a piece with like 4 other restrictors of different sizes and stuff should be like 3 bucks at napa.

Well put in my orifice and at the top of 3rd my iat was 135 and my iat2 is at 199... It's only 80 out right now.
I think I'm gonna re route my surge tank 3/4" hose yp higher and turn the T fitting toward the front of the car instead of turned facing down. Right now it's all the way down to under the washer fluid tank and back up...
When u say .40 orifice do u mean that in inches... Bc that's larg lol sure u meant .040. Lol.
