1966 Fan Shroud Mounting / Hot Idle Compensating Valve
« on: March 20, 2010, 11:29:35 AM »
I recently purchased an NOS fan shroud and a 7-blade clutch fan for my 1966 to bring it up to correct A/C equipped spec. I also found an NOS Hot Idle Compensator valve.

I'm hoping someone has detail photos of the Ford fan shroud and mounting hardware (installed), and of the hot idle compensator valve (installs on the PCV line) so I can do it right the first time.

Thanks in advance!

Looked and I found no good reference pictures - hopefully someone else will be able to post

Neither is real difficult to describe - just no good pictures

Thanks for looking, Jeff... if anyone has a decent photo of original fan shroud mounting brackets and screws, I would really appreciate it!

One more bump after six months to see if anyone can help me out with fan shroud bracket pics.

Thanks.

If you still need pics or any help with the Hot idle compensation mounting, let me know. I have a 1965 convertible with one currently mounted on the pcv hose. I can send pics and measurements if needed.

The hot idle compensator valve details are listed in Bob Mannel’s book. You have that reference?

I do Chris but there is no mention of the threaded adapter and barbed elbow or part numbers relation to them. I'm wondering if its a backyard or dealer installation or if it is indeed a factory practice.

On my 67 the stock formed pcv hose was simply cut and the compensator spliced in.  Uses the regular pcv valve, no threads or brass block.
There is some discussion snd pictures here:
