Re: LS swap for my 75

yea so funny story. I have 2 fans behind the radiator(in front of the water pump) and um well I wired them backwards. I mean I wired them right if the fans were in front of the radiator but in this case well you know. they were puling air from the motor instead of pushing it. so on my 20 minute drive to work I was getting a 195-197 reading.

Re: LS swap for my 75

so far so good this bad boy has a massive amount of power. currently dealing with a fuel gauge issue. weather the sending unit is plugged in or not it pegs to 3:00 I have a new gauge and sending unit and replace the sending unit wire. so I'm at a lost right now. I also deiced to shoot some satin black on it.

Re: LS swap for my 75

Did you check the ground from the sender to the frame?

Re: LS swap for my 75

Yes sir. I pulled the sender out of the tank and both my old and new one grounded to the sane spot. My original one work like a charm the new one didn't. It goes straight past full to 3:00 position
