One thing about the way I have done mine that I never thought about was with cutting the radiator shroud down sure does make working on the engine easy. I need to weld one more piece onto the radiator bar to keep my fan system in place, I happened to do something while working on it and it popped out of the tabs so it needs to be held in place. I have got to buy my intake boot from a 88ish IROC to come straight out with the MAP and then air filter.

RB, I vote for the pushfan as well. I had to cone out one fan shroud to ease more room for the upper hose myself. I will have to put a piece of plastic in between them to eliminate rubbing cause they rest together.
