Great idea with the water jacket - top work
I think you should have left the fins in place - more surface area = better heat dissipation - unless they were about to fall apart.

Looks great that one. Nice welding too:) Might been a good idea to leave the fins there as it spreads heat better but the water inbethween may work better.
i did think about leaveing the fins in but a, they were a bit knackered and b, i thought as they had such a small passage between them it would hinder flow, now finished it compleatly and spent an hour leak testing and welding the mounting plates on so will be able to drop it in the car!!!:hehe:

that single wire connector could well be your lambda sensor wire? just check that,i might be wrong,would certainly explain the overfuelling
