yes it is..fan sucks.. outside temps are around 70-75.. car runs about 210.. if I pull over to tune.. after idling for 3-5 min..it will hit about 240.. (only happened once..now I don't sit to tune unless heater is on high).

we are getting a new high flow fan so hopefully that will help some.. the main problem is.. we still have a/c. when I first got the car running I didn't have the front bumper on..so temps stayed about 220 when idling... our plan is to replace the stock colt a/c condenser with a smaller half sized one (if we can find one). to open up a lil more air flow to that side of the car... air doesn't go thru a bumper..i/c..a/c condenser and radiator very well when just sitting lol..

the car owner bought a complete setup with lines fittings and filter I just installed it..

if I remember correctly it was something like this

http://www.jegs.com/i/Russell/799/660500/10002/-1

I drilled the hole to size..threaded that thru with the white nylon washers that fit it.. 1 on each side.. and a large fender washer then the nut..

I think I used a barb fitting on the inside to connect it to the pump.

The car looks Great! For those who have a faded car like this one was, The paint can be brought back to life with a Harbor freight polisher and some expensive polishing compound. You also need at least two buffing pads one being wool for the first cut, second being foam for polishing.
