I like it! BUT you need a leading edge on the front of your hood exhaust to promote the venturi effect and get that airflow over the hood to suck air out of the radiator. Doesnt take much. Some kind of lip probaby an inch high would do wonders.

you really don't need a fan much over 25 mile an hour....your installation will actually block flow thru at higher speeds...might be good enough for your street driving though ...



I will check on that. Average temperature here during summer is 90 F degrees. I always let the car to get to at least 160 degrees before going for a ride and never goes over 185 F degrees. Haven't taken the car for a trip longer than 30 minutes, so I’ll tell how it went on a longer trip. Thanks!

I used to have a “leading edge” (you can see it earlier on this threat) but I didn’t like how it turned out, so I rip it off and started from scratch. But yes… I will fab a leading edge.
I was thinking on something like this….but still not sure….

I like it! You no longer have a v8 so you wont need maximum cooling so I bet it'll be just fine! Are you going to graft it into your hood?

Been a while since I posted!!! I being doing bodywork (that I HATE), sanding and painting.

I still need to work on the hood. I already painted the car but need to fix some orange peels, runs, cut and buff....
My goal is to participate in the Okteenfest that is going to happen about 30 miles from here in September.

Here are some progress pics!!!
