    Homemade TBI is the only way to fly the TBI skies.

    130 amps makes everything work better. I did my whole setup (minus the alternator) for around $80. The breaker was the most expensive part ($60) plus $20 for cables.
    Ain't **** if it doesn't have one of these.

    Also, the optima in that picture is still in the jeep, it was used when I put it in there in 2002. I heard the new ones weren't so good though.

    I don't really like electric fans. Sure they don't eat radiators and that was the reason I have them, but it seems I'm always messing with something with them. Now with a V8 I have enough room for proper fan clearance, will go back to mechanical if it's ever convenient.

    parasitic draw will come from somewhere. If its not from the fan itself its from the alternator draw. With a working fan clutch you can't notice a difference.

    Kopeki, what is that?

    Jerry and Fred's dialogue still cracks me up.

    I disagree. First the parasitic draw for the alternator to produce 50 amps I would guess is less than the fan at full pull. Much less most likely. Second, you can notice with a fan clutch, because that clutch engages from time to time. E fans free up power, and MPG. There is a reason more and more trucks have them from the factory. Hell, even cop cars have them.

    Also, a mechanical fan can fail, I've had it happen to me personally.
