Looks like a SPAL, cant you just reverse your polarity? I think I tried this a little while back on mine and it simply rotated the other way ... Am I missing something?

Any interest in a ~2070cfm 16" SPAL radial pull style?? I'm looking to go to a different fan setup?

I've said this at least three times now ... cooling fans are only functional between 0mph and 20 to 30mph ... above 30mph your passive airflow does significantly more!

Nice work - keep up the progress!

Any concerns with the angle your throttle wire is connection to your valve assembly?

i had a set back with the tach gauge. I used the tach with the 2j when i was stock ignition system with a igniter it doesnt work off the signal the ecu puts out.
so i took it out and ordered a perfect tuning gauge that i will replace the tac with

It sure is awesome to see another member tackle the fab work themselves and make their car 100% their own!!!

I've learned a few things recently about aluminum. If you brush the joint really good with a stainless steel brush, it welds much cleaner and smoother. Also, look into the FUPA 12 tig cups for doing your stainless. They keep a larger section of the weld shielded. Uses a little more gas than a standard cup but totally worth it once you see how pretty the welds become.

Keep it up!

thanks man.
yea i know about keeping the ss weld under gas longer now. But if i ever do a Manifold or piping that will be seen then i well definitely get a big cup and go alot slower.
iam thinking about making a compound set up down the road with the built block
