The Willomet Charger

A desecration to Mopar nuts everywhere, this is my protouring, LS-powered, 1970 Dodge Charger; built at my shop, Willomet Motor & Fabrication.
How could one play favorites? Fans for everything.
One is a heat exchanger with the radiator. The radiator will have a fan. The other is similar to one of my triton coolers on the suburban. Also, fan.

Remember, you live on the surface of the sun...If he doesn’t then it will talk me out of one for my truck.
Changing up the dry sump fittings. Normal NPT to AN with a 90 is too bulky, and oil lines between primaries seems like a bad idea, even if everything is insulated.
So, -12AN O-ring banjos it is.
Oil lines will go vertical, run along the oil pan flange. That keeps the big -12 oil lines a minimum of 2 inches from any primary. This generally matches the remote oil filter setup.

Snazzy! Although that does add more places that have a chance to leak with it being a swivel.
Yeah, I don’t love more o-rings. I’ll have to make sure these are Viton or another high temperature synthetic.
I am also playing with the idea of making a custom fitting block. It’s not a complicated part.

I'm using some of the radium banjo fittings on my fuel and oil lines. No problems so far, quality parts.
No6 is connected to the collector. If there’s room after I run 2 and 8, I might have a change to eliminate the 2” CLR bend for a 4”.
It’s 50/50.

Halfway there.
Pulled this apart to get all the joints fully tacked. 3 and 5 are 41” and 4 and 6 are 43.5”. The pairs match to within an inch. Now to make 1/7 and 2/8 match their respective crossover pairs.
