Perhaps I've not made it clear that the proposed coil would be on the outside of the CC, NOT in the inside? It would only be on the end plate that the FT is...
i know i supose to read but i have so many things to do at the same time . i like to know what ratio do you have ono the transmition of your go kart eddy thank...
I think you could build a heat exchanger that wouldn't restrict the flow too much on the drain. That commercial one might be too much restriction. I think if...
