     Couple of questions. What kind of airplane? Yes it uses the early
     7 bolt cartridge. You will need a bracket to bolt the pump
     and the alternator to the left side of the airplane where
     the stock AC compressor goes. You will need somebody to tig weld
     for you. I can get t hat done for people if they order it
     when they order the pump. My guess is around a $30 welding
     charge. Depends on what kind of plumbing you want to use.
     Hose, AN or wiggins.

     Oops, forgot to answer your last question. My plumbing type is still undecided and I will listen to any advice and
     suggestions I can get. I plan on getting a rad from C&R and I think (?) they can make attachments for any of the
     above.

     While on the subject of the rad, since my space is so limited I am thinking of a 13" wide rad side by side with the
     stock oil cooler. The Scirocco size rad is either 13 X 22 or 13 X 27. I will have to go with a thick rad to make up
     for frontal area so I am working on ways to suck air, like an exhaust augmentor.
