Can't imagine trying to get the cooling shroud off with the engine in the car. Just to get the cooler nuts off....wait a sec...there's a smiley for this. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)

Pelican has a tech article posted by someone.
http://www.pelicanparts.com/techarticles/9...ooler_seals.htm I have done this a couple of times and it is a tight fit to do anything in there but it can be done. Jim |
