I was terrified that I was going to scratch it all to , but I took my time and didn't drink any beer during this operation! The front sheetmetal was such a bear to get lined up right that I knew I'd beat it up more trying to take it off and put it back on, so I just pulled her heart our as she sat.

Now it's just a waiting game until my 532 is finished, probably 8-10 weeks. I'll be back to burning rubber and banging gears this summer.

I did call Derale about the fan issue and as expected, they 'have never heard of or seen this before', so I offered to send the guy the pics, of course he declined my offer, but was happy to give me the part number so I could buy a $130 replacement fan...
