[VB] engine codes ..

[claralw at aol.com]

a B case has the larger oil passages IIRC, so no? green adaptor seals needed.? just use the orange ones.? don't forget new seals between cooler and adaptor.
You can use step studs where one end is 6 and one end 8 for adapting the cooler to the case and vise versa.
might need to change fan hub on generator as well as the fan.
Fan nut torque is 30ft lbs IIRC, its not an axle nut.??? I leave it on the engine when undoing it in case it is over tightened.?? put a screw driver in the gen pulley to keep it from spinning like you do when you adjust the fan belt.

doghouse fan shroud 
generator fan 
front engine tin with vent for doghouse cooler tin 
offset oil cooler adapter and doghouse cooler 
 
mounting the offset adapter has some issues.. 
 the 6mm stud on the block is too short.. install a longer one.. 
the block holes for the other 2 studs can be drilled for the 8mm studs 
 
you need the early to late oil cooler gaskets -big hole one side, small hole  
other side. 
 
the case has small oil passages..  they can be drilled out if you like 
 
may as well add a remote cooler pump cover, and drill the case for a return  
line..
