malibu runs, and cools!

after getting all the hoses and radiator and etc to fit i got a fan from the junkyard, a 2 speed ford fan with a cowl and everything works awesome! fired the car and let it idle for almost 30 minutes and it took a while to heat up the coolant in the block even without the fan on, then just turning the fan on low speed it was able to easily cool the motor down to about 180f (stock tstat with 2 very small holes drilled in it) pretty happy with that! on top of the rear not being a drop in i figured i would go the 8.8 swap route so me and corey pulled a disk brake rear end out of the junkyard for this pig, and i bought swap upper A arms for it. very excited to have this go in.
