No idea what problem is..

Tonight after putting my new hood on I noticed a loud noise when I was driving home....every time I turned right there was like a creaking/groaning(?) I can't really describe it....only when I turned right....I don't know what is is but could it be the fan clutch screwing up? I have noticed that the fan has been going extremely much lately....it works like the engine is overheating all the time (even when just started) ... I can't check the engine's temp right now cause my temp gauge is broken (always pegged and doesn't move) so any idea's on what it might be?

You put your hood on, did you check your gaps at all? Maybe its flexing a little when your turning right and hood/fender/cowl are hitting

Yeah, we had a friend of mine come out who is a body guys and he helped us line up the hood.....we have about .5 inch on each side, might be the problem, I'll check it out but I don't think that is the problem
