Default Pics of Hood and Engine work

Just finished cleaning up underside of Hood, Engine detailing and adding Electric Fan. Thoughts on my tribute to the Crimson Tide.


I used the pipe insulation I just read about here on the forum to seal up the radiator. Used two speed taurus Fan, temp stays around 180 driving down the road, never went above 195 running the A/c wide open at Sonic drive thru for 15 minutes, 98 degree hot alabama day. I'd say it's cooling great.

ummm, are they paying you to put that "A" there?

The engine is clean and tidy.
