Doing Concrete fill block, will it effect any cooling?. Im doing a RD28 / RB26 build also.

So it turns out that the particular model RD28 block I bought was electronically controlled and had a crank trigger. The trigger wheel is a three-post deal that will be replaced but the sensor is mounted in a really neat position in the factory oil pump cover. Going to try and utilise this with a custom 12T wheel like the RB guys use. From photos it should be possible but I've got a couple of wheels/gears coming to me to try. Will be ace and OE looking if it works.

Epic picture post because bored and want to feel like there's more progress. imgur stuffed up the order a bit but whatever.
