    II Owner from Belleville Il.???

    You would really have to modify it quite a bit. That recieved stub into the collector is aimed below the crossmember from the factory. The way I had it done with the 2 45's put it well within the diameter of a 13" tire. Whatever my car hit with the 13's would never hit the header. And the...

    II Owner from Belleville Il.???

    oil pans and pickups

    Is this really the stock fan?

    The fan I have on my 76 cobra and on my previous 76 ghia is an exact match.. I found that the 7 blade design has a much higher flow than an aftermarket flex fan.... I like it a lot....I am think about switching to an electric because I want to go with an electric water pump....
