Default Fuel cooler delete and bumper installation/alignment/beading.

Is anyone on here running without the A/C fuel cooler? I would like to delete mine out of engine bay simplicity, and for the fact that I deleted my AC system as well during engine R&R (I would like to put it back in one day, but am focussing my funds on getting the car running for now).

I am also putting the bumper back on this weekend and my main concern is if the fit is precise enough to forgo the bumper beading which acts like a gasket to accommodate warpage and other unavoidable defects causing bad fitment. I'd really like to get it permanently on this weekend and don't want to have to wait for parts again or have to run to town to get something.

Hi Matt,
My car never had a fuel cooler and runs fine without one. Not a bad idea to thermo wrap the fuel lines if using headers.

You will need new beading. ROGER & DHL
