It's a water air intercooler in this case internal part of intake plenum. It drastically shortens the path from turbo to cylinders as turbo will be directly plumbed to it with only TB between. It also equalises flow to all the cylinders better than any other design.

I'll use stock 951 ic as first water cooler and another one in place of stock ac cooler.

Ordered a new silver Momo Prototipo, hub adapter, and offset adapter for the 84, and eagerly awaiting its arrival!

Finally got around to doing the Fuel Lines, Throttle body reseal, New Vacuum lines, new ignition bits and bob and the cam offset key. Has really transformed the drive

My neighborhood was spared last nights devastation but most gatlinburgites are camped out at the community center. Going to go load up the car with food and make a delivery.

Located and installed a couple small bits that I normally don't see on our cars:

Battery shield which mounts on the hood and the upper radiator hose clamp that mounts to the air box bracket.

Cool, your clamp is in great shape too. Where'd you get the battery shield?

Parts Heaven ($5.00).
They're customer service is fantastic and they always come through with the real hard to find stuff.

Installed my new silver Momo Prototipo wheel and JWest offset adapter- so much more comfortable it's not even funny, and it isn't the plastic junk that was the three-spoke wheel I had! Wish brown leather was an option, but this is so nice I just don't care.

I like the overall design of the prototipo but I just cant think of enough reasons to spend that money on a steering wheel with that finish join between the horizontal spokes and the round thing...I mean..for that money they could at least use a one piece leather to cover that bit of the spokes as well...or don't cover them at all like the bottom spoke...and then there is the join of the spokes leather to the aluminium...

I don't get it that you like the design of this wheel, but you are critising the stitching and price?

It's Italian MOMO, there's nothing wrong with the quality or stitch looking at this shot at all?
The horizontal spokes are covered with trim as this is where your fingers are (quarter to 3) hence the bottom spoke is not covered or used!

I suggest you start making Morghen Steering wheels using one
piece of Leather and see how it looks?!

Speaking of steering wheels, can anyone suggest where I can get mine recovered? Mine is a bit worn and. Oils stand some help. Thanks in advance .

i dont have to make my own, there are other steering wheels that are finished way better...one of them is the factory 3 spoke leather wheel and the factory 4 spoke leather wheel.
Its not admissible to see a gluing line or the side of the wrapping material in any circumstance by looking at the dashboard from the driver's or passanger position. On these momos you can clearly see that the two opposing spokes have additional leather/material glued on them and like i said the edge of the material is visible.

Here is a good quality wrap and finish...when i pay momo price i expect this level of quality...instead i can see patches of leather glued.
BTW, i worked in a steering wheel factory for some years.

Broke or disconnected the bowden cable for the inside driver door handle... Frustrating since I cleaned, adjusted, and lubed that whole mess a year ago to prevent this exact scenario...

Also, discovered that apparently the driver front wheel bearings make an extremely unhappy, extremely LOUD humming noise above 20 mph when it's 2 degrees outside. Nothing particularly cares for it being that cold, especially 33 year old grease, apparently.

On the plus side, I did find some posts during my research that suggests that my pulsing passenger rear brake issue that I can't seem to sort out (despite rebuilding the caliper and replacing pads/rotors) could actually be caused by a worn wheel bearing as well, so I'm seriously considering just doing new bearings all-around and hoping that fixes everything.
