    Manual Clutch Fan To Automatic Fan Concerns

    Yeah they both sound like good options i'll stick with mine for now and yes it is a fixed fan on there no clutch, and the radiator has a bunch of wacky things done to it and I'll want to replace it and an electric fan would probably clean up my engine bay a little bit

    383 Stroker

    Wondering about getting a stroker kit but my only consern is the balancing. The kit i found is already pre balanced but its externally balanced with a flex plate in the kit, I have a manual flywheel but found this bracket on ebay as a counter weight http://www.ebay.com/itm/191450583552

    Manual Clutch Fan To Automatic Fan Concerns

    Ive heard about swapping a manual fan to an electric and heard it can free up 10 horsepower and fuel economy due to less drag on the motor, but it will put more on the alternator too right?

    Just bought lift kit. prob gonna ride rough

    Factory front leaf spring sag.....

    So my truck used to be a plow truck its whole life and the front factory leaf springs are arching in a negative way now. Would it hurt to flip the front springs and maybe get another inch higher and ride a bit smoother or?
