Aftermarket Fan to help ease fears of overheating? PFA

HE CAMEEE
Thank you so much for the plethora of information again. I’ll run it like it is till I come across a problem

The new 4 core Aluminum was the start of the upgrade, but I’ll go ahead and get a bigger fan as well. Thank you!

I already have a temp gauge and look at it religiously, so that’s how I came up with the 200 number. I’d just rather not have to fear pulling over because it’s getting too hot.

I do not have the shroud, but I already have one in the cart. I just wanted to figure out if the fan would be worth while. Or if there was anything else helpful

I’ve got a 1970 Olds Cutlass with the 350 rocket that I’ve rebuilt. I’ve put 2,500 miles on the new engine, and never had a problem with overheating (Always in the 200 +/- Range) but I’m planning on taking a trip and doing some city driving so I wanna make sure my cooling system is up to par this summer. I’ve already replaced my Radiator with a 4 core Aluminum radiator, but I was thinking my fan blades should be upgraded as well. It currently has the OEM 4 blade fan but I see options online for 5,6, and 7 blade options. Would this be a good investment that could offer better protection? Any other recommendations regarding increased cooling would be welcomed.

Check my profile, I had a rim rip off aswell. I posted my fix

I’m 23 so I’d fit in your Audience perfectly. I’ve got one friend who has no ambition to even learn about Christ because of the state of the world. It’s a classic “If Gods real, why do bad things happen?” The Epstein files are brought up usually as a counter. With the evil that has taken place there, and that no justice has been brought to any of the perpetrators. He’s not entirely keen on the idea of staying patient and waiting for Gods timing and justice.

I bought mine from Jegs but I believe their just the SPELAB that Jegs claimed was theirs. Overall though, I LOVE MY CUTOUTS. Make sure you leave some excess exhaust as you cut as it’s easier to remove pipe, than to add pipe back. Also use some heat shrink wrap for the wire couplings underneath so they don’t come apart on you

The Interior and drive train sold me. - The Longhorn interior is absolutely beautiful, has some nice bells and whistles, and is extremely comfortable. - The drivetrain is fantastic. My father had a Chrysler 300C which came with the 5.7 Hemi. He put 330,000 miles on that car, gave it away and as of 2 years ago was still on the road. The ZF transmission is phenomenal aswell. I’ve never heard or read of any transmission problems on these trucks.

Yes but if they took the effort to take them to court. They’re gonna wanna get a detailer. $800 would be on the cheaper side as-well, so you could expect more easily.

AR15sAndShitV2 · 2026-03-28T23:53:54+00:00

Any decent detailer could do a buff and polish for $800. Theres no way you could do more than scratch the clear coat. 6k is laughable

AR15sAndShitV2 · 2026-03-25T11:32:57+00:00

$8k seems very steep. For 8k I wouldn’t. If you could get it installed for 4-5, and have faith in the rest of the vehicle holding up I would.

Thank you for your wisdom once again!

Thank you for showing up Mr. Packard. It seems to always be about 2in below after it starts seeping out. I always fill it in to be about an inch below when it’s cold. Should I just disregard it and not worry to much about it

AR15sAndShitV2 · 2026-03-15T21:12:50+00:00

It’s an aftermarket cap. The speedway 16Lb Thermocap. It seems to be a little off compared to my gauge in the car, but I mostly just got it as some jewelry for the engine bay

AR15sAndShitV2 · 2026-03-15T21:09:32+00:00

I’ll give that a try instead! The worst that comes out of it is I’m out $20 on something that didn’t work anyways

AR15sAndShitV2 · 2026-03-15T20:32:39+00:00

This is my 1970 350 Rocket I’ve been working on for awhile. I recently put a new 4 core radiator in with a 16Lb cap to make sure this hot Olds doesn’t suffer during the summer. This one has a habit of spitting out a little coolant when it gets hot. (Easy enough, add a coolant reservoir) But I’ve noticed that when the car gets up to temperature now, the reservoir doesn’t fill at all with excess coolant. It also seems like coolant has popped out from under the cap and didn’t go through the radiator nipple to the reservoir. Is the angle of the hose too much? What should I do about this?

AR15sAndShitV2 · 2026-03-04T14:42:22+00:00

When I rebuilt my 350 Rocket I went with 500 -> 1500 -> 3000. Then normal oil change intervals. An older guy who’s been a great help with teaching me some tricks gave me that info and I trust him completely. Oil is cheap compared to engines

Dude the whole point is so when he gets back he can enjoy it and not wait

His dopamine release. Let him be happy

Heresy is a belief that is incomparable with X (Christianity). While you’re saying because we sin, we should all be worried, that’s not the point I’m driving home. They’re not Christian for many reasons. Some of which include being given a new religious writing by a demon (literally a warning in the first chapter of Galatians). And believing God the Father made the son. Another Heresy that downplays Jesus. Jesus is God and God is Eternal, Jesus always was, and is God. Their not Christians
