    Redoing my cooling system on my 65 Plymouth SF. Currently running a Griffin aluminum, 22” Sure Fit, with a Dereale 17” pull fan and a 14” push fan. When it gets to 90+ degrees here in Phoenix, have to leave it in storage and wait for winter! Lot of money down the crapper not to mention time...

    Non Mopar Question

    In addition to my 65 SF, I have a 1966 GTO. When I start the engine and release the key, the engine quits. If I slightly hold the key to the start position without re-engaging the engine, the engine remains running but when I release it, the engine dies. Research states that in older cars...
