Cherub,

What did you do for the fan set-up now that the WP is rotating in reverse? I started thinking about it today & assume a mech fan from a serp set-up is req'd (which I mat/may-not still have from my swap parts).

Still waiting on my brackets. They should arrive tomorrow according to tracking....

exactly you have to use a fan from a serp setup of the same year model. Im glad i found that out before i put it into use. My only concern is that it wont move enough air for this 454. We shall see though. Im just waiting to get the 3" exhaust put on before i start driving it again.

Yep, I confirmed the fan pitch-direction was different the other night by comparing the OE BBC fan to the SBC/4.6 serp fan. I'm digging around now for info on the biggest fan/clutch combo (searching for something like out of a BBC serp burb/SS454 or similar).
