Well, that's nice, but I'll stay with my SBC, why, more options available, and it actually fits in the engine bay, you have to modify the front to install the Mopar even with the shorter pump and right side inlet, can't use the PW shroud because the Mopar pump sets too low, gotta use a puller/pusher fan to cool due to Chrysler's thin wall technology, engine weight between the Mopar and SBC is about the same, and replacement parts readily available for the SBC and reasonable. My engine temp runs a cool 170 degrees with 17 inch fan, stock radiator and shroud, what's your Mopar run?
