Re: Project: LS1ick68
Some more progress. The transmission was giving me some fits the past couple years, so I had it gone through to make sure of any issues. The builder said it had signs of overheated fluid. So, I decided to bypass the the cooler system in the radiator and install both a trans cooler and a deep trans pan from Derale.
It only took me about 4 attempts, but I was finally able to get the cooler lines bent correctly. Here's the end result.
So, for the past several years, I've been able to run only a single 16" fan mounted directly to the radiator with no issues. However, with the added trans cooler, and power steering cooler, I figured a fan shroud was a good upgrade to make sure air was being pulled across the entire area. I had a local fab shop bend it up for me.
