If you really want an electric fan and are at all handy, buy the parts yourself from racer wholesale and save some money. A 10" puller fan should be plenty, cost you about $30-40. The thermostatic co

You lost me with the last sentence. :) What do you mean by "rodded out"? The cheap/easy/ineffective way to clean out a radiator is to use a chemical flush. The right way to do it involves taking off

The other thing that clearances can play with is time on the seat. This is especially important for the exhaust valve, which has a lot of heat to pass into the head (and thus to the water jacket). If

Both Konis and Spax are good "uprated" shocks. Spax have the advantage that they can be adjusted without removing them from the car. Replace it all. I highly recommend getting rid of the rubber bush

Alternatively, you can use brass nuts on the stock studs as the factory did (highly unlikely to rust) or go to a marine supply and get stainless nuts and spring washers. Either of these solutions sho

You haven't done anything "wrong". The one thing you might have left out is checking (and renewing) the rocker shaft and bushings; those can cause low oil pressure or wavering pressure. Which, as alw
