The best place I found to get the Taurus fan is at a local pick and pull but you can also find them on eBay.

The Taurus fan is a good mod for a do-it-yourselfer, will require a few other parts that 'Teach covered in his DIY. But still will come in considerable less than the cost of a new kit such as the Flex-A-Lite 180 Exteme that I purchased and intalled.
At just under 3000 cfm, the Taurus fan is almost up there with the 3300 cfm of my Flex-A-Lite.
A good mod whichever way you choose to go...

Yea the flex-a-lite is on sale for a great price at moesperformance and is gonna be the easiest to put in. I did the taurus on my truck and the hardest part for me was fabbing up the brackets to mount it inside the stock shroud. The taurus fan is on 3.8 ford taurus or mercury sable from 88-93 I think. Just go to a local junkyard pull the fan out and as much of the wiring as you can get.

When are you planning on doing the install?
