I cant believe how much room was added to the front of the engine by fabbing in a mustang dual core radiator, fans and aluminum shroud. I wired in the factory speed controller with the dual fan setup.

It would be awesome if you used eaton swap brackets. Ditch all the cobra garbage

Sent from The White House on taxpayers dimes.

DTR + 4.10's + Eaton swap = Wreeeeeeeeeeeeeeedom

I like the radiator/fan setup, do you think it can be moved forward an inch or so to close that gap with the core support?

It can be, but only if the power steering and transmission coolers are relocated. I made brackets to keep those between the a/c condenser and radiator for now.

What would the eaton swap brackets replace? I'm just working with what I have for now.

It would get rid of the pulley bridge, extra idlers and let you use a marauder alternator. Plus is looks better

All that motor and using a Fram oil filter.... Motorcraft or nothing!

Don't listen to 20 year old superstitious nonsense. Fram has worked great in my house on multiple vehicles for over 10 years. PH2x FTW.

Thank You for the comments everyone. I just got the blower snout back from Jon Bond after a rebuild. The front bearing had a total failure.
