Re: Electric fan setup?
Modern cars use electric fans not clutch fans. Actually, the clutch fans were not trouble free. I replaced a few of those things in my 60’s gm cars. The clutch fan in my old van is noisy as hell first thing in the morning.
I installed a Derale 16516 electric fan in my ’53, this is 16 inch, 2175 cfm, I installed it ‘pulling’ with no shroud. The 16 inch pretty much covers the radiator and looks nice.
In my truck with a 350 V8, a water pump fan, even if it would fit, would be pretty low to the radiator. Looks like yours is the same. I don’t have a/c.
Electric fans can run after you shut off your motor to continue cooling.
You might want to do a boneyard search for an electric fan package. Maybe some of the guys on the forum have done this. Some of the oem fans are two-speed.
