    Your coolant hose and AN fittings are too small, they should be the same inner diameter as the radiator, they wont flow enough for your hot weather, and you need to make sure where you fill your coolant is higher than all the hoses or you wont be able to get all the air out. And a welding tip for you, try trigger welding until you figure it out, like doing a bunch of tac's , hold it down 2, 3 seconds, move over 1/8 of an inch, hold it down 2, 3 seconds, so on, you will stack dimes without even trying, then once you see how that works, its easy to figure out how to weld, hold trigger continuously in one spot until your dime fills up, move over 1/8 inch, until your dime fills up, and so on, you dont need to move the gun in circles or u's, easy peasy.

      @@nickbristow1356 when I started this version of my project, I hadn’t even heard of Subaru gears (15 yrs ago) and when I did, they’d not done the true reversed 6spd sti trans kit yet (I still don’t think it’s released). I’m pretty deep in my 5spd so I couldn’t justify the pivot. Would love a reversed sti trans but man it’s long and heavy and would mean a significant rebuild of my rear setup.
