Default Wire tucking question



my car, koz i knew i'd have to post a picture to get ya'll to read t his...

ok, i've noticed alot of wire tucks have the radiator fan gone... what does this do to the running temp??? is this something that is safe???

I've also been planning on starting a wire tuck on my car, is this something that I would still be able to daily during this? as long as everything is reconnected of course.

secondly...

costs involved with full wire tuck battery relocation... etc. what costs will i definitely incur?

There's like one or two wire tucking threads in the fab section,
it Really depends on how much you do, for the cost of it all though.

The fan is mounted on the front side of the rad and should be a push fan, thats how mine is to clear my turbo/manifold.

No, it's not safe to remove the radiator fans and I don't think anyone does this unless it's a non-driven show car which is pointless... get slimfans with a nice-looking aftermarket radiator and they'll be a lot harder to see and have a clean look. I don't see why it wouldn't be daily drivable since everything would still work, but the problem is if you ever have a wiring problem with your car... have fun digging under the dash in a clump of wires trying to find the problem. About the costs, I have no clue. Personally I wouldn't do it... maybe clean a few things up, remove the ABS, freshen up worn brackets, etc. but don't go all-out and hide every single thing you possibly can.

okay you want to do a tuck. it takes lots and lots of time. you should get a beater to make sure you can take your time. also do lots of research. and do one thing at a time so you dont get confused and dont forget to check your grounds. get a voltmeter to make sure you ground the wires good.
