Horn, cowl bolts, Flex-a-lite fan....and more questions

[scoyote]

OK....getting down to the stuff we cannot remember ;-)
1972 Blazer.....almost...

1) Where does the stock horn go? I took lots of pictures before we tore it down but I can't find one showing location and I browsed quite a few builds on the site and didn't see one so I gave up and figured I'd do it the easy way.

2) Does the cowl bolt down (besides the ends) does it bolt down where the hood/cowl gasket is or is that push pins? And if it is bolts...anyone know what size or where I can get a "kit"? LMC doesn't have them.

3) I want dual electric flex-a-lite fans with thermostat controls. I have these on my Ford and I love them.....anyone else used them on a stock blazer radiator? If so...what size? Flex-a-lite doesn't list a 1972 blazer and I don't have the radiator back from the shop yet.

4) Radiator overflow ideas? Besides the stock big ugly overflow tank, anyone have something that is pretty cool looking and fully functional? I don't really like the look of the stock one.

4) Besides $250 plug wires from MSD for my HEI distributor.....what is a good and capable alternate plug wire? I don't want $40 wires on that stroker but I didn't want to spend $250 either....anyone have a good alternate?

5) Antenna......should have plugged the hole and bought a windshield with it built in but it's beyond that now and I need an antenna. So.....besides stock repro.....????

Some pretty simple and stupid questions for most of you guys but I've been searching the internet, LMC, Truck and Car Shop, GMC Pauls (hard website to find anything) and I'm out of ideas and places to look.

Any help?

1) Horns are located drivers side on the core support, couple welded nuts on the core support. Right next to the relays



3) Just finished reading a good 4x4 project thread by Rackman, he used a flexalite kit I think, looked really nice

The MSD Blue wires run about 100 Bucks and have a lifetime warranty, as far as that goes. I bracket raced a big block for 10 years with a free set I won. As long as you don't cook them they are great, a little hard to get off the plugs though.

Here's the cowl screws.

I run the dual 13.5" Flex-a-lite fan/shroud, works awesome...well the thermo didn't act like I wanted it to so I manually turn it on/off but other than that it keeps my built 454 nice and cool. I did install a 4cor rad too, requires longer mount brackets I bought from one of the catalogs.

Cool....thanks for the replies, links and help.
It's coming together!

Burt 4x4 is that a dual battery setup you are running?

[Burt4x4]

Yes, I got a driver side batt box from some dude on the internet years ago. I don't remember what he told me he pulled it out of but is was 67-72. It looks identical to the pass side just reverse and bolted right up to my rad support

Here is another shot..
