Thu, 17 July 2003 11:16 One thing I have been told with e-fans is that aftermarket ones tend to have higher (or is it lower) pitched blades than OEM, which means they move a lot of air at idle but actually restrict flow at high speeds. Also, the stock fan shroud helps the fan suck air through but you most liley have to ditch it to fit e-fans. Wreckers here sell small (ie tiny) thermo fans for $40 and bigger ones for $65. Couldn't find somehting to suit though - the pair out of a 3sge (12 + 10 I think) early fwd camry looked the best bet in terms of depth etc, but the car had been front ended. Lots of old hondas have efans but they look tiny. I have a single davies-craig 10" here I bought on EBay, and a thermostat kit from Repco that I havent mounted yet. I doubt a single 10" will do the job so I'm looking out for an OEM 10" or 12" to pair it with. Not too keen on punching bolts through the raditaor, so I guess I'll have to fab up some brackets somehow. [Report message to a moderator]
