Okay, that fan shroud. Was that the only version of the shroud as I seem to remember one like it painted red. (Or some other color than black.)

Thanks for the info, must have been quite rapid, The gearing is old school.
The 84x90.5 use to be quite common, keith S, chop top, ex kieth goss car had a 84x90.5, it ran hard. 12.6 if i remember rightly.
Does Mark Voegtly come on here? he use to bulid a few of the dkp engines, Dave masons, Bill Shwimmer... Always seemed like strong combo's

man, i really get to appreciating it even more when looking at these detail shots!  Shocked
there's so much customizing that went in it.

oh, that 84x90.5 got me thinking! it might make for a nice future engine at some point  Roll Eyes
