Best thing to do with the stock cooling system is to make sure it all works. and is optimized. like having the tins seal off tight. the flapper tins in the fan housing operate through the full range of motion. I did see the seals on some old engine tins. What is everyone using now a days? |

Does anyone know how tight to make the cable connection? I used vice grips to keep mine taught while I clamped the cable to the cross bar? In Jake's video it shows them just sort of loosely clamping the cable to the flaps.
