Re: How hot do Big Blocks normally run?

Not having put those pieces in, they look like they can only be put in one way. Maybe I'm wrong, there. I wasn't clear on the driveshaft. It's the spline on the rear section that has a lot exposed. Here are both sections for reference. There are more bolt holes in the cross member that the center support sits on, about 1" back. The backs of the fan blades are 3/4" ahead of the back edge of the fan shroud, so more like 1-1/2" to1-3/4" movement would be better. Most of the equipment here has slotted holes, so I should be able to massage them a bit.

Looks like I have a center support carrier in my near future, too.

Davepl- I am considering an auxiliary fan, but want the rest of this ironed out first. All this hot running is without using the AC. My truck has dual exhaust, as well, btw.
