Re: 86 Suburban daily driver

And in with the new(er)! Fits really well, as I'd expect from a motor that is physically smaller than the one that came out... What I didn't expect is how well the 2005 stuff meshes with the 1986. The fan is nearly centered in the shroud with just a little of the blades sticking out, the hoses work, the intake ducting will work, but may need a little shaving on the bottom side and plastic welding it back up to clear the shroud. If I could lower the shroud a little it may work, but that doesn't look so easy to do.
