1969 Daily Driver

So the drive to Tucson was uneventful. So much so that I have really not much to say about it other than I wish I could go faster than 65mph for 6 hours. Other than that I got 22MPH and nothing went wrong. I had to adjust the valves when I got to Tucson and adjust them when I got back. It only burned 2 quarts of oil for 820 miles. I also forgot to post that the electric fan I had laying around was not up to the task of cooling the engine I had to put a thermal fan clutch on there. That is the part number I found that works well and still have over an inch and a half of clearance.

Bummer we didn't get a chance to meet. I saw you driving through the parking lot once though. I was only getting 18mpg but I was definitely going more than 65 the whole time ;) I have a 22 inch 2 row aluminum radiator with a Mishimoto slim fan and a homemade shroud. It just barely fits but did a fantastic job.
