Cannot go wrong with Techno Toy Tuning. Game is a GREAT Vendor !

Did anything ever come of these ?

Dave is a Top Notch Guy, who does TOP Notch work ! He has done NUMEROUS pieces of varied application for me. Trust him 100%

Where in southern CA are you ? I'm in Long Beach now, and you can scan mine. I bought two from Brad a decade or more ago. Sold one to a neighbor, and have one sitting on my dining room table awaiting install. I haven't been on this site in a LONG time ... Life got in the way. I don't even know if Messaging would work here for me, so use AldosPapa@me.com

Years of cars that parts were acquired from, part numbers, pics .... ANY of that would be very worthwhile sharing. The story, and technical sleuthing is terrific; but, if you're going be a trailblazer, please share the wealth from the experience ...

I'd like to piggyback this Thread because I have a similar dilemma. My car has been in mothballs for years due to an unanticpated "Life Change". I am desperately trying to get it back together. Similarly, I am trying to rebuild the door guts; but my 'issue' is a bit smaller. Does anyone have an in tact window, w/ regulator hanger that they can post a pic of the SPECIFIC ORIGINAL Screw that holds the glass to the regulator hanger ? I have buckets of screws & bolts, and am pretty fanatical about using the "correct" piece. I found the threaded metal 'washers', and nylon 'washers'; but the threaded 'washer' hole is bigger than the threaded hole on the hanger that the glass mounts to. I am likely not using the correct terminology; but, if you have an idea, or want clarification, please EMAIL me. Thanks VERY MUCH !! Stan DogRescuer@iCloud.com

I haven't been on the site in YEARS. My build sits in a storage shed under four layers of moving blankets. All that is needed is some wiring finished up and tuning; but, alas, no place to work on it since losing my home. Somehow, early in this thread, my gut told me the FFR Coupe ... A-W-E-S-O-M-E CHOICE !! Their best product IMHO !! Did you go to the Annual Gathering in HB ? I was there many, many hours salivating over the cars. Lamenting on all of the time & money poured into the Z build, when I could have been driving the Coupe long ago. At the time, my decision was based upon the fact that the Coupe requires the big investment Up Front, whereas I've been able to spread the cost of my Z build out over 6+ YEARS :~( lol ... a post early in the Thread about the coupe "copying" the Z body lines ... err uhh, other way around fella ! [Can't remember who it was]. Someone didn't know their history ... Daytona was 60's, Z car 70's ... Anyway, GREAT Choice, GREAT job ! Someday, I'll be there ... hopefully. My Z definitely has the looks, & attention-to-detail to get good money if I auctioned it, then I could do the Coupe, as well ... always been my dream car since my teens [that's a LONG time!]. Doesn't do me much good to 'dream', when I have NO place to work on cars any longer [used to have 3 car garage]. Hell, it may be many MORE years before I can finish my [rotisserie-built] Z Project ! :~( Congrats ...

Yes ....

Greg at Altec Products is INCREDIBLY Service-Oriented. I am certain that he would email you directions if needed. He has helped me on every occasion without any hassle...and I have NO affiliation with him or company. Just great service !

"Correct" is very subjective ... if YOU like the look, that is 'correct' ....

I have not put too much effort into photo-documenting, and doing write-ups. Just not really my thing. It has been a LONG project ... survived near death personal injury, business failure, marriage failure, yada, yada, yada. Car sees light at the end of a long, dark tunnel. Thank God Mike is helping me button up all of the TECHNICAL aspects, for which I am the Geico Caveman [or is it Progressive?]. I saw so many deadline goals come & go; but, I just got enough resolve to say 'I'm going to finish it damnit'. Once all of the electrical is sorted, the final assembly will be a snap. All of the panels are ready to go, and the interior as well. For those who have not come across my previous posts here bear in mind, when Mike and I lifted this car up [bare handed] and set it on a flat bed trailer a handful of years ago, it was a SHELL. That is how it started ... no suspension, no interior [AT ALL], no glass, nada, zip, zilch. Just a sheet metal carcass. With that in mind, yes, the car has come a LONG way. First 'plan' was a nicely 'massaged' LT1/4L60E. Shortly after Mike was one of the first on the site to do the LS swap, I got 'infected' by the "well if I'm going to do ...., I might as well ...." bug ... MUCH worse than Swine Flu or Avian Flu. Body & paint was a huge uphill journey, as well ... and that was the phase that I most looked forward to ... ironic. Anyway, just wanted to check in, as I didn't believe that Mike really posted pics of my build here [without me knowing it ;~) ]. I will gladly answer questions that I am capable of ... but, Mike is THE resource on this ... I merely scratched my head, cursed, wasted money, and 'redid' phases to get it here. I don't see myself creating a Build Thread, as many of you so diligently do [and MUCH APPRECIATED, by the way]. That being said, if I can help in any way, I would be happy to since the site has helped me so much. It should not be long before Mike posts [leaks] pics of the streetable finished phase. Stay tuned ...

This is merely another [RELIABLE] option to say, the Delta Unit ... which is what I was going to get myself. That being said, I just have come in contact with too many people [in person] who have had Quality Control issues with their DCC units. The controller is outstanding [in theory]; but, those whom I have met that have had defects have had a very difficult time getting them resolved. This set-up [mentioned in today's 'dialogue'] may not offer all of the bells & whistles; but, it does exactly what it is supposed to do... and, should be pretty idiot proof. And, for those of you who have read some of my other 'Electrical Dilemma' threads/posts, I am a bit obsessive about good wire gauge, and these have really thick wires ! :~)

It is ... didn't realize that he was marketing them on eBay already. His big target market is rock crawlers & four wheelers. I was under the impression his price point would be a bit less; but, eBay fees and all .....

Just as an additional FYI, for those 'Electronically Challenged' [like myself], I collaborated with a guy that produced REALLY SLICK Plug-N-Play Wiring/Relay Harnesses to handle these high draw fans. His prices are reasonable, considering the time savings, and the quality of the assembly. His contact info is: info@thoroco.com Name is Dave. He has Field Tested the set for several weeks under very demanding conditions [towing a large boat & trailer]. Tell him Stan referred you. I get no compensation whatsoever. He sent me one of the finished pieces as a 'Thank You' for providing him with so much info on the Taurus/Lincoln fans, and I was REALLY very impressed [which isn't easy to do].

The Lincoln fan is 18" and the Taurus is 17". Both use the same motor. If you are buying it online, as opposed to pulling it at the jy yourself, try to get BOTH connectors [M & F]. The shroud on the Lincoln AND Taurus are the same if I'm not mistaken. I have a few of both; but not accessible at this moment. There is so much written about these fans online, you could kill HOURS reading about them. It is as reliable and effective a method for cooling as the SBC is the foundation for pretty much ALL V8s...
