Default GREAT performance mod for V6!!

Well I know I havent seen this in my searches on here in mods for my widdle V6 so I thought I would share! We all ( or most ) have clutch fans mounted on whatever drive pully to cool our trucks.... BIG DRAG on the motor... Get a " black magic extreme 180 " Electric cooling fan and free up those ponies!!! ( 10-15hp) BIG BIG BIG difference.... that with magnaflow exhaust/intake really woke my lil V6 up... not to mention I have 22' rims on it so it was suuuuuuuuper slow before I did all this.. Exhaust and this mod IS A MUST for a the V6.

Super easy to install... took me 2hrs

I got the "V8 swap" factory you hater

Frenchy keep in mind some of the really high CFM numbers people talk about for the taurus fan are what it's rated for free-flowing not pulling or pushing air through a radiator. Most of the ratings I've seen of it as a puller are close to the numbers Eric posted.

I actually have a 07 4.7 with 20,000 on it i bought off a guy who wrecked his truck but to switch it out i would have to do soooooooooo much **** i dont wanna do... holding on to it now... the 4.7 isnt really a beast of a motor anyways.... now a 454 thats a beast
