Thank you guys!

Of course I was driving to work today and noticed my temps were crazy high. Parked it, didn't think much of it. Drove it home.

By the time I got to my house temps were crazy high again (220 on my mechanical gauge and 240 in HP Tuners... not dangerous, but way outside of the comfortable zone). Popped the hood, and noticed there was something I didn't hear... my fan. Checked HP Tuners and it was setup properly, and I can hear the relay opening and closing. So either it's the wiring (doubtful) or the fan shit the bed. LUCKILY, for some reason we have 4 of the exact same 16" SPAL fans at work that I can borrow for troubleshooting. So, going to do that tomorrow or Wednesday and see what happens.

All in all though I love the look of the car with the hood on. Just need to figure out the fan, throw in the pump and finish getting the tune.

Definitely watch those temps with the iron block/aluminum heads.

That thing'll run 250 all day. 

I'm sure you know that your ECU switches the GROUND for the relay... But worth repeating.  90% of the time I get a swapped car in here with no fan function, it ends up being because the owner or builder grounded both ends of the low current (coil) side of the relay.

How in the heck do the cops leave you alone with that exhaust? What size is that 3"

[digitalsolo]

I have a 3.5" just like David's setup had, and have had no issues with cops.

Then again, there are street legal Indycars here, so.

.......Is David still around??


Longtime since I came across this thread.

Ever since the good ol' 45 in 2016, he's been distant to the interwebz world. Which is probably smart.
