So I want to get a fresh block and rebuild a 2270 street engine. I have always loved the look of horizontal fans and would really like to integrate this into the build.
I have seen a few, (even an electric one) but which would be recommended? Would it be worth looking into building a 90 degree coupling? (or would it be too power sapping) - I have access to lots of billet and machinery, so If anyone has done such a thing I would be very interested to see what you have done. Anybody running a HF in a Fourteener? Would love to see pics if so. Thanks in advance. |
