yea i would like to but i cant get the damn thing off. i have electric fans that came from a 91 big body cadillac but looking at some other options out there they look kinda crappy. ill probably leave the clutch fan on there for now. ill probably try to find a dual fan setup from a nbs truck. im just doing the basics right now to get this thing in and get it running. oh yea i found a pedal. and i found a few threads showing the installation and it seems pretty easy. plus i was told the dbw is better.

Cant get it off cause of ruct or what? its not very hard to do. If its rusted on there just get a new water pump theyre not much.

im not worried about it right now. once i find some good fans ill remove it. ill probably do all the mods at once.
cam
stall
intake
bigger tb

ive never had an ls engine so i wanna start off stock so i can feel the difference that the mods make.

Most people run F-body LS1 efans, but 96-98 Ford Windstar efans are a great choice IMHO
