Shiny new parts!!

New cam maybe? or just modify the stock rubber lines and run them to a regulator like most of us do?

Now how do you plan on passing the smog test? What you just did is completely illegal in the eyes of the law.

I notice you're in Inglewood. Our Thirdgen club is having our bi-monthly meeting this Saturday the 4th at 6pm at Ricky & Ronnies in Torrance. You can check out the thread about it either on our club website ( http://www.sc3g.org/ ) or in the SoCal forum over at thirdgen.org.

What exactly did you have to do to get those fourth gen fans to work, as in mounting-wise?

I would have gone with a holley 650 in your case. Looks good though. I've never been a fan of edelbrock carbs. How tough was the LT1 fan conversion? That is something I would interested in doing.

well the 600cfm edlebrock i got from a friend for $50 he only used it for 3 months.....

The lt1 fans stock come with ears in the side and on the bottom... you would have to cut them off with a dremel.....

Then you would have to cut horizontal all down the center....

Plus u have to get rid of the stock fan mounting plate that sits at the bottom....

then you get sheet metal screws and drill them through the top(evenly spaced)

I didnt take any pictures of the modifications, but i have a lt1 transam outside... ill take a picture of that fan anf and post them when i have time.....

No I'm not the smog police. I'm just a guy with a nice daily driver that passes the smog test with a legal setup.

And I'd also hate to see you get your car impounded.
