    Fan clutch

    We don't get the Tundra here at all Nick. I bought a brand new GTE one when I built my motor, I can't remember how much it was exactly but it was expensive..... I had a new NA one on my old motor but it wasn't going to work well with the 10 blade GTE fan.

    cam ?

    I'm not understanding the reasoning behind this Pimp? They turn at half crank speed are small diameter so don't have a lot of mass and the back side is the base circle of the cam which is needed to operate them.

    Is my HKS Clone wastegate missing parts?? (pics)

    Are my cams F'd? Can they be used? *pics*
