MMR 3v head coolant crossover! I only plan to use the actual fittings to replace the coolant plugs on the back of the head's. I will allow the super hot coolant coming from the fittings will be funneled into the coolant lines leading into the heater core.

A few more 20an&16an fittings to completely rid the expedition of clamp on radiator hoses... also needed a inline thermostat; I'm going with 160deg. Autoplum fittings will be used on radiator and block locations.

*** update ***
I'm going through a nasty divorce, however I plan to finish the expedition very soon... it has the 4" hot and cold aluminum intercooler piping finish. The duel 3" dual exhaust is also complete. Next week the expedition will be heading back to a new shop for final completion... come hell or high water the expedition will see completion!

HDSteve.....I've always been curious about something and have gotten different answers over the years. Let me give you a bit of background.

When I got old enough to start messing with machines, it was with my friends and we mostly had boat engines and their first cars, 5 or more year old Muscle cars in the early-mid 70's...most of my friends were a year older than me. At first, we "fixed" them as we learned. Most of us reading this did the same with their friends or learned with Dad.
Then we started to think about going fast, I thought that cars seemed heavy and slow........but motorcycles provided speed at a fraction of the cost! I didn't even know how to ride one but I knew the math.

So, other than the "super-coolability" of a modded truck to drive around, why did you invest in making a car/truck go fast when a bike is so much less expensive, for much more speed?

No judgements on this, I'm just curious
