the black magic fans are proven winners. the taurus fan conversion is popular with musclecar guys, aswell as here. i am looking into the chevy hhr fan, it pulls a lot less power and pulls more air than my current weisco fan. plus, they are cheap. around 50 bucks new on rock auto.

 

The fan I am currently using is pulling around 1800 CFM... hasn't had a problem keeping it cool yet.

Not sure on the stock CFM, but I am guessing its close to what I have.

I have an 18 inch single fan.

I used my factory shroud and fabbed up a bracket to use the shroud mounting holes and bottom tab.

When you pull off the clutch fan, you dont need to put anything on the threaded surface.

As for gaining power or not... Yes, absolutely you do. You will feel it on your first ride around.


ok, wiring... I used a Derale adjustable fan controller. You just hook up the positive from the controller to the battery, the negative to a good ground (chassis) and then your fan power and grounds to the controller. Then take your temp sensor and install that. I adjusted mine to turn on when my stat opened up...

Hopefully that helps clear up some of the questions. Studly's write up is a good one, might want to take a look at that also.


oh yeah, travis, you would need to figure out a mounting solution... but I would think you would be fine on power.
