Which way is the fan gonna blow? Will it fit between the fuel cell and the rad?

Looking awesome Brink, my itch to do mine has become a serious, nagging, itch, and only more cowbell (err, fab work) can cure it!

Fans will be pullers....mounted between the rad and cell.  There's also a heat shield mounted about 1" from the cell to keep the hot air from heating the fuel.

No chance for Highriders this year.  Still few weeks away.

Not much of an update.  Been building another jeep for the last few weeks.  It's out now and mines back in though.  Been dreading the floors so I decided to get them out of the way first...

Engine cage almost done.  Be 3 more tubes near the firewall running from one side to the other.  Need to mount the battery, new intake manifold, and fuel injection to check all the clearances first.

Big area at the back will be home for a couple coolers with fans I think.  Probably do some aluminum over the front area looking trick...






Mounts for the new coilovers are also done....

Thanks buddy.

Getting close now....

Interior just needs the dash panels and the all the cable shifters/cutting brakes mounted...



Fuel lines done...


Engine pretty buttoned up.  Wiring left, finish the ducting the intake, and plugs/wires....



Engine cage done.  Coolers for the steering and fuel mounted on it....



Tank and rad mounted and plumbed.  Fans mounted...

Anytime guys.  Been a busy winter with work in the garage.

With mine nearly done I should have some room again  soon.  1 Cage to do and a set of gears/arb to install....but generally I can work things in.

Let me know if I can help with anything.

I want to hear this thing before the exhaust is put on.
Why does your Jeep say Toyota on it?

Dash is pretty wraped up now.  Side panels on the console and some wiring left....




Had to build a throtle bracket for the TBI.  Couldn't make it boring right?

Buddy Phil came like 4hrs each way today to help me make this thing fire up.  Went from what looked like an imposible rats nest of wires, to simply dealing with things one at a time.  Seemed really intimidating to me but with help from Phil it all went smooth.  After a couple tries and a couple minor changes we came up with this....
