Pulled the trigger on the champion triple core rad, bought a new aftermarket intrepid dual fan setup since nothing was available locally used, and this dandy little relays to wire it up through my sniper

Brand? P/N?
I was considering this conversion route for my car but JY fans are an unknown vs. something new & depending on the source they might even have some warranty.
Would it surprise you to know I got some more NOS parts?
Wasn't really looking for these, but inquiring about some mirror gaskets the person I was discussing parts with just happened to have some interesting G-body parts that interested me. Don't see these every day.
Heat shields for the gas line over the axle/exhaust on the passenger side as well as the cat converter shield. Both bolt to the body to help reject heat from the exhaust components.
GM p/n 25501213 (gas line shield for G-bodies with dual outlet exhaust) and 25512619 (cat converter shield for virtually all G-bodies 83-up).

I can't guarantee these fit and work yet, but will follow up once I have it all setup. But the number I got for the intrepid fans are

Was checking my email after dinner when an eBay alert popped up. It was a notification for something that I had placed on my “watch” list over a year ago, so I was very intrigued to see what it was.
Turns out it was the mythical golden unobtainium unicorn of unicorns, a NOS AstroRoof weatherstrip seal! I had all but given up any hope of ever finding one.
Naturally I jumped on it like a fat kid on a Smartie, chances like this don’t come around very often. It was even made in Canada, and now it’s coming home again.
The universe wants this car saved.

I should have posted this over the weekend, but I took a partial day off Friday and went to the wrecking yard to check rear view side mirrors from a Trans Am Firebird. I was successful in acquiring both right and left electric mirror motors (I've already got two good wedge mirror buckets).
I went to a different yard on Saturday also and got a pair of taillights from an '85 El Camino.
That was my g-body score for the weekend. I also picked up something for a non-g project.

This was on Friday but I purchased a reman power steering gear, new hoses, upper control arms, Moog 5660 springs, shocks, and all the little stuff that goes with them. Finally going to get the Monte off of jack stands in the next few weeks.
