the cooling system has me intrigued to say the least. would you build another turbo oil supply line for me? that is nice and clean looking.

Im friggin tired .... lol but the pics must go up ...

alt bracket in ...
new oil return line...
hot side water manifold done ....
new alt in ... needs the belt ... easy step

checkout the solution i had for the water pump ... 

and more

Ok so I can machine garage fab and run hose ... But I am going to need some help on the electrical side for sure.

I dont pretend to know a thing about doing electrical work..... I know red cable plus ... black cable neg ....

So I am going to need some serious help this week. I did purchase the ACME wire kit for the glow plug with relay and fuse ....

So if you are a electronic wiz I would love your help and insight. I can run wire and make it look pretty just dont know a thing about it ....

Electricity equals  =   F^&% Magic ... lmao

very impressive on the water pump, now you could run the manual pump for a back up plan huh? you should show Jeff what you did I think you have figured it out!!!

Ok so i only got a few hours in tonight ... the cooling system is done .... the electric pump works great.

I am going to revise the hot side manifold ... hose barbs ....

Take a look this thing should run cool for the most part .....

the diesel lives and breaths .... I have lots of loose end to clean up but she is up and running

congrats!! I HOPE to hear mine going clickity clack soon...

Nice work on the project.  You'll have to let us know how she handles. 

well got the cooling all dialed in so far.

still have a little air in the system and a few little bugs I need to work out .... i really want to find a accurate temp gauge ... for the ZUK

the video is just the first test run more pics of my set up tomorrow

CIMG0441

I forgot to mention today was the first test drive ....  I cant wait to get her on the road for a real test, my new calmini lift is stiff and bouncy still needs to be broke in right



intake tomorrow and exhaust this weekend
 

Exhaust?  I think it sounds GREAT now!  Love that whistle.

Ran her today for a hour straight ... never above 135F ... this is with no thermostat. I have a second electric fan going on when snail mail gets it to me.

VW emblems to be mounted as soon as they show up from snail mail ....

Lesson learned, dont drive down a bumpy road at any speed without securing the hood ...lol ! yes I have a new dent in hood small but a reminder to pay attention to what im doing.

 

Nice work! Love that whistle too, turbo's are sure fun. Your lucky the hood didn't take out your windsheild and frame too!

Ok I MOUNTED THE NEW STEERING STABILIZER LAST NIGHT. " PRO COMP" BOLTS DIRECTLY TO THE AXEL AND STEERING ARM.PLACED THE $4 BLUE BOOT TO MATCH THE THE CALMINI DUST BOOTS.

I NEED TO POST SOME PICS FOR YOU ALL...
