Hey guys, I was looking to pick up a spreader bar for my 79. From what I've read, the SpeedDirect spreader bar is the only one that will fit cars with the stock mechanical fan and shroud setup. However I no longer see the spreader bar on SpeedDirect's website. Anyone know if they are still made?

Ecklers sells one on ebay (corvette spreader bar) looks to be same advertisement as speeddirects.

Good find! Thanks, If I give it a shot I'll post back here to let people know if that one works with the stock fan.

Years ago when I bought mine I gave them my CF name and got $10 discount. Don't know if they do that any more but call and place the order.

I just bought mine through Van Steel. Nice unit and it included all the hardware and instillation instructions. Plus 5% discount if you are a CF member.

Thats what I have and it's nice and will clear the mechanical fan setup with about 1/4" of clearance under the water pump pulley.

A picture of Bigfoot?

theandies's camera takes pictures in 16 pixels, whether he needs them all or not.

I think Duck Hunt for NES Nintendo had more pixels than that photo.

I mean it all in fun. I'm in a weird super hyper mood- I have been busting my *** trying to get a new job because my current boss has been working me into the ground and I thought I had totally bombed the interview and just found out I'm at the top of the stack to get the job, so I'm in a weirdly happy mood.

I was actually laughing at your reply. It's all good bro, just bust'in your chops.

Good luck on the job.

That's funny cause I was just thinking "how did he fit a camera down there? I want a camera that small!"

Don't know if it is still offered but I do have it on my 78 with the stock mechanical fan and shroud...tight fit but works perfectly. Great addition to C3's............

For what it's worth....vb&p spreader here. It fit well with the sbc and serpentine setup from a late 3rd gen fbody. It had plenty of room for the new ls3.
