Ron, I know this is off topic, but what type of fans are you running in front of your radiator?

Cool, thanks. So you noticed a temp affect after you installed them? Also, how did you wire them up; switch, controller?

Flexing them muscles i see huh'...lol...
Nice job on the highsteer! makes a big difference does it?

hey by the way, i got the same aux. fan setup just like yours!
the extra cooling helps keep things cool for my 327 too..

yeah i love the new steering i went out for a shakdown in the hills today and alls well. i did move the box forward and drilled those funny pins out of the steering shaft. i am a hobby welder so don't laugh to hard. the frame is plated and sleeved just like you suggested. no buildup pics cause i just wanted it done!!!!


i posted a picture of my steering box mount on "truss it or what?"
thread check it out there
