Nice job on the turbo setup and being able to use the stock evaporator case. I had a time clearing the case with ONE stock turbo and you spiked the ball and cleared it with two big un's. Good show!!
Thanks. It was a tight fit for sure. The fan hub is a touchy issue. I robbed the fan hub from this to put on my corvette because I put the one from the corvette on a customer's truck. I sold my diesel tach cluster for cash and a dodge cummins 94-02 fan hub. The problem is that the guy sent me a industrial fan hub. So that brings us to the orange fan hub. The bearing in it is toast and I'm trying to find a shop that can press in a new bearing. I'm having issues finding some one that will do it. I don't have the tooling, and I really don't want to brake one, so yeah. Until I get the 2 fan hubs I just purchased a few weeks ago, the orange one is going to have to work until I get the others. I also think if I get an intercooled first gen hub, I might be able to put a mech fan on it. IDK though.
