Hey Mike,

Thanks for the pics. They look to be the same as my idea for mounting which would be a plate top and bottom rivited to the steel cap and base. I will then affix the fan to that plate. I am also thinking of using a rubber moulding to seal the fan shroud to the face of the radiator. I am a bit pissed in that I thought I had an original idea to paint my engine compartment to match my stripes! Looks good . On a separate note, the strut to raise the hood I did a bit differently. I chose a gas pressure strut for both the trunk and hood. Really works pretty neat. I'll post some pics either before I leave on vacation or upon returning. Its been three years since I have taken a day off work so I am looking forward to a bit of a break. I will be off on my boat to Mexico and Coronado and will be monitoring my emails when Im in port. I will post a pic of my son on the back of my boat in my gallery. Check out the boats name...

By the way, our radiators look like they are mirror images of one another. Mine has the lower outlet and top petcock on the passengers side. I did get a good idea from yours in that I can use the upper fitting to use as a bleed. Thanks again for all your help.

Regards,

Pete
