Could those of you that are running a 460 engine, please let me know what you are doing for a cooling system? Please confirm if your car will remain cool on hot days, hold a steady temperature, and if you are able to run air conditioning.
My car has a 460 swap, from a prior owner, and I am pulling my hair out to get the cooling system to work well in stop and go traffic.
Thank you
Go back to the original drivetrain. Barring that, use an electric fan and get rid of the horsepower-grabbing mechanical fan.
I have a 20KW stationary generator. It made such a racket. I spent $2500 refitting it with a super hospital grade silencer and it was no quieter. A Kohler tech show me prints for a new 20KW and they were all electric fan cooled. He told me my fan was making all the noise. I found a high output radiator fan and now I don't hear it run. If the car is that modified an electric fan won't hurt. I think the 460 has a few pounds on the 368.
