68 short, i was watching you cut that hood and i kept thinking why not just run the older hood with the slope.. Then i saw the final project and man, that is awesome. Its almost cowl hoodish looking without the cowl hood.. Sick.

Awesome Fab work! Can't believe I've never checked out this build!!! From the title, I had always figured the project was a lifted up 4x4 (which im not into)- Keep up the great work, project looks great!

I have a question. I seen that you ran the fan support through the radiator instead of making some kind of bracket to support it. I've heard that this could sometimes cause a leak in the radiator due to vibration and such. The question I have is this really that big of a concern when installing electric fans?

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
 
thanks everyone.....wcodyp, the electric fan has some foam spacers that actually contact the radiator at the point of contact....the fan also has a 'lip' on the shroud so there is not a sharpe point hitting the rad. fins....all this sufrace area is mounted on the fins, and isnt hitting the core/tubes of the radiator....ive never had problems with electric fans causeing leaks in a radiator due to vibration....the manufactures instructions also say to mount the fan in this way, so i think we'll be ok.

Thank you 68 short step for taking the time to answer my question and great build on the truck so far.

The hinges look like they belong with the scheme you have going. Very nice! :ito:
