Well last time I never set one up so Josh did it. Anywho I think somewhere a little more south would be nice. I got killed on gas so I will be saving my money to get more.

I plan on making this one as well. Mostly for selfish reasons. To take a look at Dylans P/S Saginaw pump. And I have been thinking about insalling an inverter to run a compressor and a welder. So I can take my show on the road. For sure the Saginaw, but mostly just questions for Josh.

Looks good to me and it's fairly close by. The burger was good but Pizza is where it's at. Now if only they would put bacon on it...

You think that's selfish? I only go for the girls at the places we visit Not really, they are an addition. I have to take a trip back to the JY before the next meet to see if thee is any sag pumps. I also was thinking about an inverter but I realized, I have no use for one...

sean, i thought renton was far enough south, and you're thinking kent, a little farther.

joe, i'd love to share a few ideas on my electrical fun how big of a welder are you thinking of running?

You know I heard electric fans are much better cause there isn't the load from the mech fan. But how is the performance and cooling?

I have a high flow one for a Crown Vic sitting here that
I had gotten for my Ranger before I sold it. For a gas
engine they can work well do to the cooling needs.
You get the benefits from the engine not driving the fan.
Diesel not so good.

Well it might be something to consider in the future. Though I don't know how to wire one up, I know some have a temp sensor so it can automatically kick on. Some people use a switch and just flip it on in traffic or something but I'd rather not have it off or full blast.

dylan, it shouldn't be too hard to wire up, i can give you some pointers on here or at the next meet. depending on the fan you get, it may be a single speed or multi-speed. if you want variable speed on a single speed fan, consider something like a blower motor resistor and a multi position switch

Heh unfortunately I don't understand much of that, we can discuss it at the next meet I guess. I'm not worried about it since I won't be doing any mods for a while. The exhaust parts and computer took enough out of my savings...
