Sadly in the year that I've had that fan I still haven't had it on a running motor. Hoping to change that this weekend when the white 1600 goes in the bus. Then I'll have some info.
Amazing video ! Have you ever heard of using type 3 pieces of tin between the cylinder's fin's they a supposed real help with cooling all so ? I saw it on Mike's f n garage he highly recommends using them ! Using the different fan have you notice huge deafferents in engine temperature ? Thank you !
I actually have them on my bus motor. There's long been a debate on weather they do a good job of cooling. It goes waaaay back to marketing when Clauds Buggies bought a huge pile of them back in the 80s and sold them a s "super cool tins. Gene Berg did some testing and found that in some cases they worked great (higher RPM), and in others not so much (low RPM). Since I'm running a big Header it was easier to use them than to modify the sled tins. I ended up doing that anyways and those are on this motor. I guess we can run them both and see what Temps we get. Thanks for watching!
Yeah, the intakes are huge and the tops of the heads are shaped different. I'm sure they make tins for these heads but I couldn't find them anywhere when we were shopping. These fit nice and tight so the air should still get where it needs to and when I install Andrigs cooling package we'll have good air volume to keep everything cool.
I normally use the engine paints from autozone. Duplicolor I think it's called. Primer, color, clear, and lots of time in between. The more careful you are and if you take your time, it'll come out great.
Pretty coo. The fellow who built my engine hand crafted the cooling tin. I call it a barn metal cooling system. I should purchase the factory stuff but it looks kinda funky. You're getting tricky with the camera work.
It's always best to have all the factory tins, with no gaps. That increases the air pressure and forces it in the correct direction. As for the cameras, we need to keep you folks entertained 🤣
I haven't had a thermostat or flaps on an engine for years. Lately I've been using the Andrig fixed flaps and I've noticed a big difference in cooling, which I'm more concerned about due to the long drives in hot weather here in Texas.
I did more coats than I showed. About a can and a half on the shroud, and the same split between the head tins. It's the good paint, and the automotive clear with ceramic. Also several coats. It should stand up to normal use. I started putting it together too soon, so I got a scratch.
satisfying to watching time-lapse painting
I almost left the sound in, but with the fast motion it wasn't as good.
Good job Jason! Now i know who to call to paint my tins.....
Looks good 👍
Thanks!
Uhaul has the moving blankets available too. Would roll on bedliner work for the roof??
Hell yeah. great camera work!!
Thanks!
That intro is rad! Nice job on the rest of the video too.
Thanks! I've been playing with the 360 cam. It has some neat tricks!
Hey dude. Where did you get those hex screws from? Awesome video!
Nice, Jason you mention the Andrig’s fan do you have a long term review on your motor with the fan?

While you had the head tins off did you check the torque on the heads .
I did!
So the flat part of the cylinder tins were cut off? Is that due to the type of manifolds your using for the carbs?

What paint , primer and clear are you using? Getting ready to do the same for my '71 Bay

Do you usually go without a thermostat setup?

The only way rockers get loose is lifter vs. cam failure or your rockers are wearing unless it was adjusted wrong .
or heads came loose !!!!!
I have a feeling it was adjusted wrong. Everything else looked good when I took them off.
@@OldVolksTV lets hope so . that a scary problem .
Clear coat or not, there's no way my tins would stay white very long dude 🤙🤣
You'd be surprised! After a week of off roading all I have to do is hit it with the hose and it looks good as new!
Looks like you went light on the paint. Unless you went with cheap paint... 🤔
