Re: Project Vitamin C-10
I have my own ideas that's a little different, but still on track. Ditch the chrome air cleaner for a painted one to match the Orange & silver Valve covers. And use all chrome bolts on the valve covers to accent it.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Dennis could you please link me where to get that air cleaner? I have not seen it in any of the catalogs yet and I really want one!

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Another option paint the valve covers your Grille Color and then orange lettering?

I think you just caused a price increase on the ones that are on Ebay.

![]() I hung the headlight mounting panel tonight and dropped 2 bolts in the bumper. The headlights work hi/low. I figured out I have 2 pins crossed in the speedo pod. When I dim the head lights the gauge lights lite up and the headlight indicator comes on when the lights are turned on. oops. ![]() I got an original bumper to fit, but this repop doesn't. It mainly has to do with the right rail where it was hit. A little work at the bolt should go right in. The upper radiator hose tbe is powder coated and installed. Just need a couple more clamps. Shannon ordered me a billet radiator cap and tested it to make sure it fit. If you notice next to the water neck is the temp sensor for the fan relay. I have to pick up ignition power. I really don't want to run a wire to the switch. I thought about tapping into the alt. if possible of the distributor ign feed. I could also come off of the choke. I can't fit another wire into the tubes along the valve covers. Ideas??

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
On this 396 in the 57 Panel I'm working on I installed the fan and temp sensor in a t-fitting because on this old intake manifold there was only 1 hole for the sensors. I hid best I could the wires down the front of the engine to the fan relay on the core support. Just an idea. Have fun.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Alan, I'm trying to figure out why you need power at that location. My temp sensor is a grounding source to turn on the fan, or complete the circuit, when the temp gets hot enough to close the switch in the sensor. Most sensor are just on/off switches to ground, at least the ones I've used on my vehicles. Your wiring kit should have a power wire in it for the fan. If you want I could get the wiring diagram I used for my fan!

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
I guess your picture of the Grile when it was laying down gave me the impression it was a darker color, no excuses for not getting up there and seeing it in person

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
If you use the diagram from Vinage Air you elimate the need to run power throught the temp switch. It pretty similuar but uses fewer wires... From the relay Pin 30 would go to a circuit breaker then to the battery or 12 volt source.
Pin 87 would go to the fans just as you now have. Pin 86 would have one wire to the temp sensor Pin 85 would have one wire to the 12 volt ignition on/off. You could add an optional on by adding a wire from Pin 86 to the ac compressor wire some where not on the engine in the wiring someplace. You would need to check you wiring diagram to see where you could tap into that wire.. Should be easy and no need to run a power wire back to the ignition switch By using the Vinage Air wiring diagram you don't need the 30 amp fuse in the fan circuit but do use a 40 amp circuti breaker in the 12 volt battery supply circuit.. Circuit breaker makes it better if the fan should ever over draw the dircuit it would kick out then reset in a few minutes giving you time to save the engine from overheating due to a blown fuse. Just my thoughts. Last edited by 57truckguy; 02-02-2012 at 02:30 AM. |

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
It is all coming together and looking great! It is so cool to see it this close and I bet you are sure happy to see it getting closer and closer. Keep it up and thanks for updating.

![]() It's getting closer. Hey, wait it minute it's not a Mazda. ![]() Didn't do much except clean up a little, installed the passenger sunvisor and took the skates out from under it. I'm use to it being higher, now with the skates out it's totally different. I took an areial shot also.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Alan , I just went to Napa an ask for a temp switch that turned on at 190, Real cheap and easy.
I figured that I wouldn't need the compressor switch since anytime the engine gets to 190 the fan would come on anyway.. Some add an additonal fan to come on when the ac compressor is on for the extra insurance to keep the engine cool during slow( parades,etc,) driving. May be needed may not. depends on how good your cooling system is setup. I acually used the triary switch setup, a little more complated but a safer system for the ac.. If I had it to do over I would probably go with the binary system to give some protection to the compressor and keep the wiring simplar. |
