Watching?......I'm goggle eyed at what you can do mate.economiser wrote:![]()
Actually, none of it is that brand. But it helps that you're watching. Thanks.

Thanks. I think most people could do what I do, if they applied themselves, but I enjoy it. I thrive on it.

Re: '83 3.8L, 50 MPG, big brakes



I am concerned about airflow behind the fans, I need to build those radiator mounts, I need to get the a/c core in there, and I need to make enclosures so the air doesn't escape over or around the radiator rather than through it. You might try a 15-16 inch radiator, but I'm convinced this can still cool somewhat better.
