    thats a heck of a fan shroud. will you be able to put the belts and hoses on?
    the fan shroud only needs to got back the leading edge of the fan.

    I hope he can make that fit 'cause it looks awesome and you know it! :D

    I mean of course it's excessive, yeah, but we're all building little cars with too much engine, aren't we?

    cut out the trns tunnel from my parts car, drove it around town, put $15 worth of gas in it, painted the middle section of the instrument cluster white so the lights would seem brighter(looks really cool!!), replaced all the bulbs inthe instrument cluster, wired the 70 fuel sending unit to the 74 harness that im using, put the instrument cluster in a got it all working, then drove it to pizza hut and had dinner and used a big a$$ rock as an e-brake since i dont have one right now.
