I really like seeing a project in the early stages.The pics leave a history for you and other members to look back on.A bit of advise,just work at your own pace as you can afford to fix whatever or mod whatever.No time cap on projects like these.No need to hurry to be able to post the progress here.Your with a number of folks who have done that and understand how long it could take.Very cool.That-a-boy!!. :clap: :clap: :clap: :banana:

finally got some of the wiring harness cleaned up and the clutch fan on. I want to install 2 12" electric fans but i dont know if they will provide more cooling. anyone know?

I have read that the 14" crown vic fan works better,but in either case,the fan shroud is the most important factor.

BTW-that is the route I am going to take once I deal with the cooling system on my swap.

The electric fans can deliver up to 2200 cfm of air movement. With the right rad that should be more than enough for a v8.

Great job on the mods so far, keep it up and soon you will have one killa stro...
