Re: Desert Trip 2010 Trip report: Beyond the middle of nowhere, 5 days in 4wd
I forgot to mention that you’ll notice the fan on my truck is extremely loud in all of the videos. I used a medium duty truck fan clutch when I installed this 8.1L knowing the truck would be spending a great deal of time in extreme heat. The tight clutch does rob some power and makes a ton of noise but the engine never even gets close to over-heating. Not even in the 115 degree weather rolling at 3 MPH with the A/C on.
