Re: Todays progress.. while I wait for my headers....

detailed very nice.
I have to ask... is the fan all the way in the shroud? I can't see it in the photos... if it is in all the way, it can cause/agravate overheating... it should be 1/2 in 1/2 out

Thanks for the heads up , yes it's all the way in... probably from being switched to a long neck water pump at sometime in it's life..... if I have probs. I'll have to get a shorter spacer....

Re: Todays progress.. while I wait for my headers....

you could get a 4X4 shroud... from what I've read on here, that'll put it right where you want it.

With a 4wd shroud,it will be in farther...won't it?The 4wd shroud goes farther back towards the motor.

Re: Todays progress.. while I wait for my headers....

I think it's gonna miss a little with those two plug wires the way they are

Love how clean your engine bay is- fine job with the details!
