No progress in a while other than some welding practice, but since I took more photos for another thread might as well put them up here too.
When the original SBC conversion was done, the radiator was moved closer to the engine, I assume to get it closer to the fan. You can also see the VapRKool sprayer up top.
That still didn't get it close enough, so an extra extension was used between the fan and water pump. Every few years, the pump would fail and the fan would happyface the radiator. Back in 92 or 93 I built a fiberglass shroud and got rid of the fan extension.
This time around I think I'll move the radiator back to its original location and run an electric fan - if anyone can give me a comparison of shrouded fan performance vs electric fan performance please let me know.
Also, does anyone recognize the compressor mount? I don't know if it was an off the shelf item, or if whoever did the conversion welded it up.
