F250 shock towers, scab plate, and FJ60 box in. Just need to order a new tierod, tierod end, and pitman arm.
Looking good! What fan and shroud you planning on running?
Yep, same one as mine. I’m thinking I might go mechanical. I’m just not sure this moves enough air.
5.7 TBI. I know these somewhat newer 350’s were meant to run a little hotter due to the emissions but, my temp is staying right around 220 and maybe I’m just a little paranoid.
I’m thinking I may try a Ford Taurus fan and maybe a lower T-stat. Not sure if I have the room for a mechanical fan.
I’m just now starting to research it all.
Good luck on yours.

Fuel filler next relocation done. Patched original location. Continued body prep. Primer and start the other side.
I can’t do mechanical fan with my carb’d 350. At first I ran a Be Cool that slipped in the stock shroud, around town it was great, but I travel over a steep pass- I’d overheat most of the time. At my friends suggestion, I picked up a Taurus fan. As long as my timing is good, I don’t have any more issues. Shroud was pretty easy to mod, as well.
Two bits of advice my internet searching turned up:
1) get the soft start relay from a volvo(same fan according to the web). Apparently the start up draw will burn up the fan.
2) Said draw is to much for the stock ammeter and fuses, so make a separate circuit to reroute the amps it’ll pull.

Rub a dub dub. Going to spray that tub. Getting ready for texture and then color.
I missed this one. It’s looking really good! Looking forward to seeing this in its full color.

Added color to the texture previously sprayed. Shiny spots will dull after it dries more.
