replaced water pump and fan clutch.. Now I can hear all the funny noises I missed from the almost-locked fan clutch. And see how my MPG changes

Did you use RTC3511 defender seals Alex? The double lip on them is the way to go.

Actually started this yesterday and finished it today but got my new custom exhaust installed. God what a difference a better flowing exhaust system will make and the tone is a nice healthy growl without the obnoxious pops and bangs some systems have. I've got a video but I have to convert it to post it so once I get that done I'll have it on here.

Unfortunately not. I bought a box 'o' seals a few months ago and just used the ftc4785 that came out of that.
