Electric Fan(s)?

Post by sofla1966 »

Looking a installing a electric fan - the space between the radiator and the 460 is tight about 3 1/2 inches and I can't get the clutch fan back on.

Should I look at 2 - 12 inch fans or one 16 inch? Does it matter or what should I be looking for.

Thanks - CK

I have even less room so I made my fan a pusher and it is in the front instead of behind the radiator. the "cool" ( no pun intended) part is it is not seen in engine compartment

this is the good side

Look for a spal fan setup from a Contour/Mystique, they are the cat's meow. They came with a couple of different ones but these are the good ones:
