Great job Justin(Buds) I was gonna say the same thing as 72 M.C. said above. keep up the great work/advice that you never hesitate to give to all the members on this forum. you're a great member and I would just like to say thanks for all you continued support to all of us here...

 

what kind of fan are you running? flex,clutch,or electric? how long does it take for this thing to overheat? is it instant,under hard driving, highway,or traffic?

 

it overheats after twenty mins or so of idling. I havent had a chance to try running it with the shroud on to see if that will make a difference. I also noticed the car starts dying out if i hit the brakes hard so Im thinking vacuum leak but I dont know if that will cause it to overheat? I know Im reaching here but I was also thinking about changing the coolant temp sensor out to see if thats not turning on the fan but I dont know???? Thanks for the help guys hopefully we'll figure it out.

 

wait so your running an electric fan not a clutch fan? whats your fan rated at? definitely put a shroud on it regardless air takes the path of least resistance and if your not running a shroud then your not helping your cause.

 

Finally no overheating it was a combination of timing being off and not having the shroud on thanks for the help guys!!!!! now on to the next problem my hose that goes to the tranny vacuum modulator came loose so thats my next mission couldnt do it today cause it rained. Thanks everybody for the help.
