He added a tunnel ram intake with dual 4V carbs... I think it was overkill, but it looks good... *Actual Size

Oh, I bought myself a gift in a new MTF headliner a few days before Christmas. I asked myself if I wanted it wrapped, and decided I didn't.

I have not verified, but in general, if a DC voltage motor has something tuning it other than itself, it will act like a generator and push power out rather than consume power ( if you know what I mean?). What this means is that if the fan normally has maybe 10 cubic feet per minute of airflow when operated by the car with the car not moving. It might take 30 amps at 12 volts to do this. If you are driving maybe 50 miles per hour, the airflow from the car moving could be 10 cubic feet per second. So the fan takes no power from the car to operate. if you were to go 100 mph, the fan could act as a generator and actually supply power to your car. It would be an interesting thing to test, but I would bet the current required to operate the fan goes down as the speed of the car increases. So there should be no need to shut it off when the car is moving. MN69Grande, I can put a current meter on your car next summer and see what happens. We could also get a realistic idea of how much actual current is needed, if you are interested. I still have the factory fan.

Thanks guys, still feel like crap. Pulled the rear of the car apart and my buddy who paints my cars came over to look at the damage. I have already fitted up a dynacorn rear valance , they are a very ordinary stamping but i modified it to suit the rear quarters . Pleasantly surprised how good it's come out. I will jack out the rear right hand tail light panel with the porta power area so it won't need to be replaced. The car stuffed the window completely , 3 weeks for the new frame and glass, oh well it can only get better from here.
