I think it's called a water cooler . Now install yours & remove that hot block of metal guys call an "intercooler"

drove it down the road with the pedal to the floor only to realize that one of my battery terminals came off because of their poor condition, so my battery died about 5 miles away from home, that was a fun run back...

I have the PFC problem where the a/c compressor only turns on at certain fan speeds, mine specifically only works on fan speed 1. From my research nobody seems to have found a real solution on how to fix the problem.

So what I did was hard wire the compressor to a 12v ignition source using a relay in between. Then I mounted a switch to one of the blanks on my center console to turn the compressor on/off whenever I want.

Moved my shell in order to transplant the front to my damaged car.

I will be removing the front where people typically weld on tubing for track cars. If you would like to buy the shell as a non-titled track car to build a tube from on the price is $250 picked up in Gainesville, FL. Takes about 4 guys to lift the car onto a trailer and I can round up help if need be. Includes (locks, glass, handles, etc removed) doors and hatch.

No need. You need room for the AI kit and small cooler for PBIR supplies.
