    There are big differences in the ebay cores to the Forge air cores .. we use 3-4 different types of air cores during extensive dyno and road testing ..we check pressure drop , temperature , bhp , and rate of cooling , all these things need to be evaluated and understood before we choose the air core ..we choose between brazed , welded , and glued cores .. the Forge air cores are also have a warranty for life ...
    choose wisely

    A few more options and information about these cores on the Forge website would be a great help!

    Still following this. Toyota and Subaru use water cooled top mounts.....Last two events at Croft in the Datsun were fine. Mid winter. Flippin freezing.
    Pulled like a train (heavy, difficult to change direction, minimal brakes. LOL!!!!)
    No temp issues at all.

    Mid summer in 30C ambient with lots of chicanes and low average speeds though?
