Couple of questions....

Marc.... what fan are you using? (electric) if I remember...

Jim.... The holes in your hood.... what are they over top of? any problems with water getting on the engine/wiring?

thanks,

If I remember right, it's this one:

16"- the biggest I can fit, low profile so it would actually fit, and specifically made as a pusher fan.

I am thinking of going with this controller...

and this fan as a puller......

and ditch my mechanical fan....

Anyone know if I'll need a shroud?

That should mount right on the radiator, so it shouldn't need a shroud.

not one complaint with the holes in the hood. othe rthan aesthetics it was one of the best mods i have done. you wou;ld not believe the amount of heat that comes out of those holes. the eng. never ran hot but the under hood temps were too hot for my likeing. back then i ran a carb and i think it helped boil the fuel in the carb. never checked but i bet it lowered temps under the hood 30 deg.
