I have never seen a fan with that steep of a pitch either . Must be some top secret race stuff and is made from prefabulated amulite or something . Or perhaps the builder used that type so the blades wouldn't go thru the bonnet when they fly off. Also notice the "auxiliary" fan belt sheaves . If the other one wears out in the middle of a race, you can just move the belt forward. I'm pretty sure his industrial strength alternator bracket won't break though.
Hardy ha friggin ha It was so good to hear it run, and actually run and not grenade itself...So i did all the hard stuff right it seems but now something as simple as a leak...FFS
Well look on the bright side, the inside of your engine has now been "washed" so it's very clean. ..
Anything else ??
Don't forget the $160 in oil..
Alright, well.Time to go pull the fkn intake back off...Here i was thinking. Get the timing etc sorted today, dash etc back together and maybe take it for a run next day or so.And the gods just gave me the fk YOU !!
Check a couple bolts first just so you know if they were loose or not.
You taking the piss right ?
No, I already urinated earlier today.
Your not serious about cooking the oil
What, does it have water in the oil ? By the way Fitzy you have done an amazing job .
Even if he is there will be consequences doing what he said that will make the dramas you have faced until now pale into insignificance.As Glenn said, amazing job. I'm in awe of you taking this on and have learnt a lot, mostly that I'm staying on outside of my engine.
Consequences ? As in my wife walking in to a big pot of engine oil cooking away on the stove..
The bolt second from the rear on the left side was i guess loose.When i say loose it was tight but i could still tighten it maybe a few mm or so.
Yep, that's what I meant.
Great day here in Melbourne so I'm taking my Mustang and my beloved for a drive up into the hills for a coffee or something. Did you know that you can do that with these cars? Drive them?

.Hey Fitzy, maybe you should stat a new thread titled "How do you PROPERLY intstall an intake manifold?".
