thanks don...i will try to find a larger fan if i can find one that will fit...but the fans there now are less than 2''...the car cools fine with any forward movement at all...even at WOT...i have checked everything i could think of...the thermostat opens at 180, the fan start runing as soon as you turn system power on...it has to be these fans...or some blockage in the radiator...i have not had it flushed because i am for sure going to replace it with aluminum...i could move the grill shell forward but i would have to redrill the fenders and move the lights forward as well..but the paint is flawless...i sure don't want holes in the fenders...i sure hope i can work this out with a new radiator and a different fan...
