also, do you think i could do a dual 16" setup without the shroud? i know the shroud plays a VERY big key in air flow, but i just can't afford to buy one nor do i have the material to build one.
I guess it depends on where you live. I live in Las Vegas and run the A/C all the time. I don't think it would work very well here but may be OK where it is not 110F+.

So I finally started working on the tank mounts. Here are my measurement sketches for what I have so far.







Those are just some drawings I made. If you are building one of these DOUBLE CHECK the measurements before you cut the piece! I usually double ckeck and make adjustments on the fly and don't correct my drawing.

Looks good! Interested to see where youre going to put that in the engine bay haha. Have you noticed the motor being any more resposive without the extra drag of the old fan?

Hard to tell....the a/c seems to work better. Problem is that I did almost everything listed in my signature and the E-fans at the same time... So yeah it is like a different truck all together.
