Question DIY for cooling fan install

Is there a DIY for installing a electric cooling fan. I can get a lincoln mark VIII fan but have no idea how to make it fit / work. Any help or pictures would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

I honestly can't remember if there's one or not. I kinda think one of the 2nd gen guys did one. Search the DIY's if not, I might can help you. I did the Flex-a-Lite before I was found this forum, so the idea of a diy didn't occur to me. I can't give you any pics of "in action", unless I kinda "borrow" them elsewhere.
Let me know, it's a great mod, will free up a good bit of HP for a relatively cheap & easy mod...

Got the fan for $45 and do all my own maintenance / upgrades. If no DIY's or pics I will try to get one done when I do mine or add to someone else's. May take a while we are watching a possible tropical storm and do not want to get to deep this weekend.
Thanks again

Would like to be there but work in a power plant and will be on call or at work Sunday night and prep site for Possible Hurricane. (Nuks shutdown when storms get to close and that means we will be running our a$$ off if Crystal River has to shut down).
