Hey mate

yeh Im going with a external water pump, that way can side mount the alt as well.

The adapter I bought off a guy down here, just had to tap a fitting.
If you wanted to go this path check out these guys.

You will need a pump: http://www.daviescraig.com.au/main/display.asp?pid=47
And a controller: http://www.daviescraig.com.au/main/display.asp?pid=56

For me the main reason was simplicity and looks (but costs quite a lot more as you can guess)

If you want more pic's for inspiration pm me

My build hasn't been quick
