Devin Brandt (Brandt Built) for the header flanges. For the coolant flanges, use the gaskets as a template and cut them out.

Good idea! I looked on their website but wasn't sure what to order. Got a part number?

For sure. Craig slipped into that one last time we were out and it hit a little ugly. He’s pretty narrow though.

Clean. What’s your total width?

Ahh I see. I was thinking if you were driving and needed to silence the fan for a moment to hear someone talking, not on shut down. That makes sense.

I like the fan switch idea. I wonder if there is a way to make an override at say, 210* just in case you forgot to flip the switch back on. Maybe another temp sensor with separate power and a diode? 🤔

Well the Gen2 is a little bigger chassis as it is (not by much) but I had the roof line lowered slightly so it actually matches up with a Gen1 total height (as I understand it anyways). I measured Brent Jolley's (used to be Jeff McKinlay's) and the floor ro the roof looks to be about the same...
