Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
Are you keeping that flex fan on there? Nice progress on the batteries and cables. Looks really nice.

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
Thanks! But no, we just had it laying around back when we did the motor so we threw it on not knowing the direction we'd go. But we have since decided to run a clutched mechanical fan.

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
It doesn't look like it will fit out of the garage. The roof looks like it is at the same height as the door opener.

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
Crap... We didn't even think about that!! We will probably have to cut the top off to get it in and out... Darn those city folk garages....
Nah, once we get the cab back we will take it to another buddies shop to do the cage and mount the cab.

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
We've been working on the rad mount a little. Sectioned a few feet of 3"x1/8" sq. tubing to make a top/bottom channel and used 1/4" and 3/4" strips of rubber as isolators. Tacked it all in place, ran the tranny cooler lines, and then pulled it off to weld up.

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
I was looking at your fan and radiator... I know you are building a custom shroud, but have you considered a high mount water pump? There is a C60 sitting at work with a 454 that has this style pump on it since the radiator sits so high in the truck and the engine sits so low. Might be something to look at
