I once built an1930 Model A roadster. It had an electric drive. I too had heat issues with the controller, here in Arizona. SO after a phone call to the controller maker, I built a cooler plate like yours. I used computer CPU heat sink paste between the plate and controller. I also used the whole car radiator and electric fuel pump for the coolant. It reduced my temperature 20-25 Deg F. I needed more so I called the controller people again. They recommended to use a "Bath tub" style plate with no passages and to put the open side to the controller........OK, I did and used red anaerobic sealant. It reduced my temperature almost 80 Deg F. After ten years I chanced to remove the plate and other than discoloration, there was no pitting or corrosion. I used 50%/ 50% distilled water and food grade polypropylene glycol. Just a thought.

I found out recently, the world doesn't care if you have all the skills, if you don't have the certs, your unemployable. Stupid world we live in.

My unions always leak unless they're soldered while screwed together and under no bending force. Good job doing it split!
-
Cool stuff Doug.
-
Iterative design results in the strongest components. Keep at it Doug.
-
Doug,… strong recommendation. When soldering a union, assemble the union first, slide it over your connections (both ends), and then solder the union into place. This insures your union is sealed BEFORE the solder joints are done.

G'day Doug, Little unfortunate about the snap ring & subsequent damage . But the new fix sounds cool ,also makes for a couple of great vids . Respect....!
-
I still recommend adding soft mounts for the transfer case.

One thing about aluminum is, you can't clean up shaving with a magnet.
-
You are getting the bugs worked out, I hope, with the help of your friends, it works out great this time.

Welcome to Riverside boat yard!
-
thats a cool exchanger, niceee
-
Very interesting there.
-
There has got to be an alignment problem with the driveshaft to be breaking stuff like that. Those tcases are bulletproof.
-
I honestly dont know. We have put a ton of power to the 205 and never once broke one. Ive been building transmissions my whole working career 40+ years. And the way it has beoken the mounts there must be something else going on. Can you get an adapter to direct mount it to the 545?

I just keep the top off then open gate valve and when I see fuel close the valve. Then put top on.
