When you get another motor, grab an electric fan, and decent shroud. It will help keep the car cool better,

My first engine was a 289, it's in the garage now. My 2nd one, I have no clue, all I know is it was from a van. The one that just died was a 302.
The mechanic I have now seems to know what he's doing. It's my fiance's fault for not getting the shroud in time. The shroud we just got in the mail was $30 there was another one for $100.
An electric fan, I'll have to talk to him about that. I'll message him now. We have a clutch fan right now.
SweeetSweetangel: what's an electric fan?
EarleBishop42: exactly that
SweeetSweetangel: the people on MW say we should get one...
SweeetSweetangel: for the mustang
EarleBishop42: a fan you put on there that spins electricly to cool it off
SweeetSweetangel: oh
EarleBishop42: we have a fan attached ot the engine for that
I'll continue pestering him.

Ya, we probably need a better one. Cheap price isn't always the better deal. I already know it's used.
