    Uh Oh. Bower Motor/24V Head Issue

    I'm starting to get the tell-tale chirps from my blower motor. She's gonna blow!

    Has anybody removed the blower motor post swap? Is there interference w/ the 24V head? Am I gonna have to lower the subframe just to get the fan motor out? I should have put a new motor in there before the swap just incase...

    TIA

    No problems when I had to replace mine, you just have to pull the manifold off.

      Thank You Stu.

      Was worried it wouldn't clear the head...

        Did you get it swapped out? If you had the OBD-2 intake mani you could probably do it w/o removing the manifold.
