Ahh the famous words of TM. "I am interested depending on price" Lengel's prices are usually awesome though.

Seriously though. Some people sit down and write stories or a book. I think Lengel sits down and writes CNC code for fun.

Personally, I would never buy anything that Lengel guy machines

OK JK, I'm in

Price is a concern of course but I am in.

ok i'm sorry i have to ask, what water box are you guys talking about?

[Lotashelbys]

I would like one if it were to be build similar to the factory looks wise and have a spare 3/8NPT drill and tap for an aftermaket water temp gauge. I would also want both the billet water box and neck to have receiving groves for an O-ring so neither Mopar gaskets are ever needed. The water neck could even be countersunk for some sexy S/S FHSCS to hold it on. On the rear where the stock nipple comes out for the stock coolant return that would be nice to just be the 3/8NPT as well so it can be capped off for those of us that dont use a water cooled turbo. Those that do would just use a 3/8 hose barb fitting that threads in with sealer.

Anyone else want to add anything lol

I will take one or ten Adam lol

I guess the stock waterbox has always done fine by me, although my goals with my cars are very modest and at this point all I want out of my projects is to start the key and hear them run!

Seems to me the Masi guys could really use a waterbox though. I have a head that is missing the waterbox and radiator hose neck. The hose neck appears to be made of porous aluminum that gets pitted very badly as well.

TIII's put the thermostat at the end of the head on an adapter block so to speak, its called the waterbox,

If you remove the factory turbo return fitting, you can tap it for 3/8, that's what I did when I didn't use a turbo with water cooling.

Great idea on the o-rings, and use the same ones as the waterpump housing so they are easy to source. Tired of making my own thermostat gaskets,

i think u pretty much covered it lol....i was going to say def need to add an extra NPT plug or 2. i thought bolting a mechanical guage right to the housing would be sweeet! on board under hood temps! def down for the o rings!! i hate spending money on gaskets lol

[turbovanman²]

! i hate spending money on gaskets lol

There a dollar, cheaper than o-rings, lol.

[Turbo3Iroc]

I'm in for 2

[CaptMoe]

Thanks Simon. That's what I thought it was and Jackson's wish list confirmed it...lol

Thats what I have done also. Just enough room for a 3/8NPT. On the Holset cars I use that area for the aftermarket water temp gauge sender. I just sadi to do it so when the custom piece is done we dont have to modify it,just bolt on and go lol

Carroll your too funny! Maybe Im looking at this wrong, but I just dont see this being worth the amount of macine work it would take. I was looking at a spare water box today and I dont think you would be able to fit everything you guys want on it. LOL (fillcap,and four npt ports) I may be able to make some of these down the road, but for now Im focusing on some stuff for my car.

Denied!!
