Any recommendations on electric fans?

[78bigblock]

I'm looking to get rid of my clutch fan and water pump driven fan on a 468. I have an 88' burb serpentine setup, so I've got plenty of electric power to push them, I'm just trying not to break the bank. I'd prefer flex-a-lite, but they want my left arm are there any other American made or quality fans? Or should I just go hunting through the junkyard?

I run Buick Rendezvous fans with my 84's small block radiator and absolutely love them. Very easy to install too. I'm not sure how easily it will mount up if you have the larger radiator with the tin cover over the top of the radiator.

Yeah, I have the stamped steel radiator bracket. I also have a fan shroud, but that comes off pretty easy though.

They might mount up in a similar fashion, I just haven't tried it yet. I need to get to the JY and pick up a few more sets. They are the same fans in the late 90's and early 00's GM minivans. Probably the Pontiac Aztec too.

Cool. I'll hit the JY and see what I can come up with, after I take some measurements and see how much real estate I have to work with.

This page here in my beater truck thread shows my fans, should be easy to mount up on the larger radiator too.

Ive got a set of factory 08 Tahoe electric fans that im going to be installing when all this damn snow and ice leave us for the year.

I have a set of spals from speedway motors. They are pretty nice. They came mounted ready to fit a stock radiator.

What amp rating is your alternator?

 

[chevyk10]

That looks like it. I would have to go through my paperwork to verify the number.

Ah, thanks. They also had dual 10" ones, but those fans are mounted 45* from each other (instead of side by side).

Amazing how much room the is up there once the mechanical fan is gone.

I love it

That looks nice, is that their radiator too? Are they home made brackets holding the top of the radiator?

Orange truck! Do we get to see more pics of it or just that teaser radiator pic?
