    more pics on the way, I should have taken more during the building of everything, but its hard to take pics when you're workin on things :) So now I've got pics of the very first day of building the engine and the last day of putting the blower on :p

    Glad to see you got it all to fit. Did you attempt it with the stock fan and shroud? I have the same rad and it doesn't appear like either are going to fit.

    No, we ditched the stock fan when we built the motor originally, and used a black magic and the motorsport aluminum rad, but there was no way the blower pulley was going to fit, so I knew I had to get a lower profile fan, but the lowest profile fan I could find was 26.5" across, so I had to get the griffin 31x19" radiator :P

    According to the novi instructions, it will work with the stock fan and shroud though, you just need a stock depth radiator to go with it.

    This combo keeps it as cold as I want it to be, although it was a chore to get everything in there. You'll have to modify the upper radiator outlet to clear the blower pulley, and I'd recommend getting a draincock and tapping one of the tanks with it, pulling off the lower radiator hose is a pain.

    Some other people have used the ramchargers dual fan setup, which is a lot cheaper than the flex-a-lite, you might want to consider that with the radiator

    Looks good. I've been looking for a better radiator and fan combo that will clear my blower belt and crank pulley. I think I will go a similar route :D
