They are an oddball with hard to find parts, but cool cars. Even the MKIII’s get pretty good attention.

That said a 3rd Gen fbody should definitely be way easier and cheaper to build out, repair, etc.

I wanna do a 1UZ-FE swap, and make it look as factory as possible.

Perfect swap for an NA car.

Have you seen this Celica, so well done-

Jump over to Supra Forums if you ever get around to do doing the swap.

That is definitely different than the V8 plastic fan. Your truck has the 19" tall radiator, right?

19" tall and 34" wide right? That's the measurements I've got; here's a pic of the fan shroud clearance

Yeah, and that fan does look a little small in the opening. But you said it runs cooler still.

Absolutely, when the clutch engages and the fan spins up it sounds like a jet boat and I can watch the temp gauge drop. I'm still debating adding a larger pusher fan in place of the factory one, since I'm pretty sure it's on its way out.
