yup. eg- my blue-sea fuse box can handle a max of 125 amps total, so i'll put a ~125 amp fuse(able link) between the box and the battery. i'll also have a higher amperage fuse in line with the stock fuse box, just in case the cable decides to short out (because of the battery-intake swap)

 

just for fun...

 

^^^^ haha I gave Ian the photoshop bug.

 

Ian try raising the black up on the wheel wells a few more inches.
I like it.

 

haha... more like the gimp bug. dam, that actually sounds like a real thing
i'll try it out... i'm not going to be painting it anytime soon. the next thing i'ma paint is the intake chamber followed by my trailer


oh, and i got the washers today. oh it's soooo nice to be done!!!!

 

I think he means something like this...

 

i was wondering when you'd post up your rig... nice! did someone draw it up for ya?

 

... like this, maybe?

 

i like it red and black are the best colors

 

Yes like that. Now through on some nicer bigger shoes, and loose the sag. Hahaha

 

gee, wonder why you like them so much hah

 

that's before the aal's and t-bar crank

 

Haha thanks! I saw a thread where a guy did the same thing and it looked awesome so when I bought my sport hood, I did the hood and the rocker panels at the same time.

Nice! I would go with something like that. Given the opportunity to do mine again, I would have gone a little higher on the wheel wells like this.

 

yeah, i heard the guy who drew it up for ya was a real loony

i've been planning out one of my next mods; the e-fan. i've created some logic here. the fan only needs to run if there is flow through the radiator. the thermostat controls the flow, so it would make sense to put the temp sensor in the t-stat housing, right? i've seen some housings with a tapped section for a sensor, and was wondering either where to get one, or what to search for. anyone know?

(like the one in this pic: )

 

Yeah man that poor guy was off his rocker

This may be a dumb question, but what is the point of an e-fan? is is just to save gas because the engine does not have to work to pull the fan or is there some other benefit?

 

mechanical fans are always turning. this robs a little power under every condition. also, the fan clutch is dumb. if the clutch gets hot (not necessarily the coolant), the fan will turn on, even if the radiator is cool enough.

with an electric fan, it measures temperature right from the coolant, so it only turns on if the coolant needs to be cooled. so at highway speeds, when there's plenty of airflow around the radiator, there's no need for the fan, so it doesn't turn on.

also, the e-fan is silent when not in use

 

Not to mention when doing water crossings although you would think an efan to be a drawback, but since it doesn't always spin, you turn the fan off manually and it won't fling water/mud etc etc all over the engine bay.

 

Oh okay, that makes a lot of sense. Sounds like a pretty useful mod. Make sure to keep us updated on your progress and install, I am curious to find out how much they cost and how hard/easy they are to install.

 

sure thing. once i start the work on the mod, i'll be taking a bunch of pics. i've read that it's a relatively easy mod, and those who have done it love it. i need to upgrade the electrical first (i'll do some more work on that this weekend) to match the 140 amp output of my gm alternator. that's another nice swap, almost bolt-in, too.
