I was looking at the water pipes that ive got for the williams engine today, and cant figure out how the oil cooler is plumbed in..
In the picture below, ive got the main water pipe from the water pump/bottom of radiator, and its got a long extension on it thats not on the valver water pipes, where does that go? Im assuming it goes to the auxiliary water pump?? (valver pipe still attached, shown on right)

Also, Mat supplied me with this small water pipe, how does that plumb in? Does it now go where the pipe was in the valver water system that went to the auxiliary pump? (still attached on the right)

I really cant afford anything else this month after buying the gearbox, so if i do need other parts, can i get away with running a valver oil filter, no oil cooler and the standard valver water system?
Oh and a couple of other things - on the valver block there was a bracket bolted just above the sump, by the dipstick, running up to the bottom of the inlet manifold, and it held the power steering pipe (metal one running from the pump). However the hole for the bolt aint there on the williams lump, so im guessing i'll be alright in leaving the bracket off??
Last thing i promise - on the inlet manifold on the valver, there was a vacuum feed-off for the brake servo and one other thing that ran off to the left hand side of the bay, and then went into the wheelarch, however the williams inlet only has one vacuum take-off, for the brake servo, will i be alright in plugging the now reduntant line? What is it even for?
Cheers guys,
Dan
