Needing a cooling fan think this might work?? http://m.summitracing.com/parts/sum-g4904. Was looking for the fbody fans or even the truck fans but can't find any in the area. Can't find a blazer/burb speedo either.

Well this weather didn't let me pull the motor. But there was a lot of parts when I got home. What fitting to use off of the fuel sender?? Do I need to cut the ends off and use a compression fitting to -AN fitting??

few simple tabs bolted to modifyed fan setup and bolted on just like the orignal shroud would have been on . 2 bolts 1 per upper rad clamp/mount . then 2 bolts 1 per side to the core support.

will space off just a tiny bit to make room for flex and if need be will do a seal around it .

Haha yea I remember you said you didn't like them. When I got mine in the welds looked good and I also took them to a welder at our refinery and he said they were good. Hoping to get the motor in this week sometime. My girls came down for the weekend cuz it's my daughters bday and I needa spend time with them so we will see how much I can get done to the truck.

She's running. Still need to finish the exhaust and either find a way to mount the air box or buy a cone filter. And mount the pedal.
