After talking to some hot rodder friends
I'm math challenged and din't do my research I messed up on the electric fans I have for this vehicle.
The electric fans I have in place.
2 10" fans - 800 CFM each 1600 CFM isn't really enough pull through the radiator properly. Not needing the fans at higher speeds
would be fine but at idle and in traffic it isn't going to be enough to keep the heat at bay.
I should have used a larger single fan with a higher CFM rating.
I used a 15x21 aluminum cookie sheet and made a fan shroud for this
I'll get another pan, get a bigger, higher CFM rated fan and I'm sure I'll be in a better place.
Now that I have her running properly and starting fine I should be driving her soon.
