68 valiant signet
not much to report today, i only had an hour in the garage. now i've decided to use an early water pump i thought i'd offer up the leaky one that came in the box of bits with my engine and see what i'd need pulley wise. it appears the pulleys i got and the alternator brackets are for the early engine too, result :thumbsup:. so i bolted on a flex fan i have on the shelf which needs a spacer for sure (i've got some somewhere :rolleyes:) to get it anywhere near the radiator for efficiency. who knows, i may even make a shroud one day. the front area looked a bit lop sided but once i sat the battery tray back in place and there's a lower rad' hose it'll be fine. once i get the new water pump i can sort it all for good.
