Cooling Tin Purchasing List Derby

PS -- I wonder if the Complete Cooling Kit for 1971 buses offered by bustedbus.com would be helpful -- do I have the " . . . 1600cc engine WITH an offset oil cooler"?

Or some other shroud assembly?

See the top pic at

See

Cannot determine shroud type from the pictures there. Reach in behind the shroud from teh left side(top), and taker a feel. If there's a BIG bulky structure on the backside, that's your cooler doghouse. If the backside appears smooth and flat on teh left side, it's the older type shroud with no offset cooler.

Yeah Jan,............There is a picture there showing the outlet of the doghouse style shroud...................the little piece that can be seen from the lower side of the engine, just forward ( forward is forward ) of the #3 cylinder...............kind of a chute.

It's most definitely a doghouse cooler and shroud..............now what's under it is possibly another story altogether.

Hope this one is of some use.

If you start looking around online there is a site somewhere that someone has put together scans of the engine cooling tin and all it's glory.........................I win.

You mean, like, after the entire engine is in pieces and I realize that none of the parts will fit and that the Wonderbus has become a basket case and I give up in despair and fall into a deep, dark, depression and poor Inge has to find a new job? The poor girl deserves to be well taken care of in such an event.

Oh wait -- do you mean as a prize for coming up with the right parts for my cooler tin project? Ah - I had not considered loaning her out for that purpose. Because it is a despicable idea! Inge is innocent, and recklessly fertile, and must be protected from those who would use her for crude purposes of self-gratification.

The very thought causes me to shudder with disgust. I must fine Inge to comfort me. Inge? Come here, my dear.

Which picture shows this? I'd like to look.

Don't you mean "lack of" ?

It's the next to last picture on that page............It's as though you were laying on your back, feet to the tailpipes, and head toward the front of the car , no lower tin to help with the cooling ,...............I can see the mounting holes for that piece that's missing, and in the picture there's a "chute" just above the upper tin................kinda like a "D" laying on it's back ( this in relationship to the picture )

Got it. And there seems to be some kinda tubing or wire thingy coming out from behind it. Like a backwards "J". I wonder what that is? I'd look but the family's Useless Teenage Boy has the bus out right now, going to Best Buy to buy a CD of some music that sounds mostly like a steel mill in full operation.

Seek help, Mike. I'm worried about you. You are turning into one of.. uhh.. us. Scary.

Are you suggesting that you don't build systems with uncommon fidelity in the hopes of having folk play Lou Reed's "Metal Machine Music" on them?
