This is an awesome build. What was your swap budget if you don't mind me asking? I tried looking on your thread and I couldn't find it. I must've missed it if you did mention it in here.

Have you considered removing the front grill and getting a "drift armor" bar to increase front airflow?

The fan shroud kit I have comes with 900 cfm spal fans. Spal makes the same fan with a larger motor that moves 1300 cfm, Spal also makes an 1800 cfm fan that has a slightly larger foot print. I ordered two of each to see if I could fit two of the big ones or maybe one big one and a smaller one, or just both smaller ones. The cooling needs some help dealing with stop and go traffic type driving. |

Engine was heating up during extended aggressive backroads driving on 90 degree+ days. Worked on some ducting to get more air through the radiator.
Had the engine cooler mounted to the factory crash bar. Cut out the crash bar Built the ducting out of home depot aluminum sheet. Opened up the grill a bit Mounted the cooler further back Sealed it all up with foil tape |

Tried drifting...didn’t work out so good. Not as easy as I thought it would be.

Awesome build!
I understand you also drive it on the streets. Does the fuel gauge work with the motec unit? And do you know your mpg? Is it better than 13? |

I am getting 13ish MPG (LS2 with heads/cam), but getting tuned in two days, looking forward to increasing it.
