Good information. I'd recommend running your bolts from inside with the nuts outside. We lost a radiator when a nut came loose, hit the fan blades, and went into the radiator. 😢 The hole was on the engine side of the radiator going towards the bumper.
I need an electric fan on my 1974 am general truck. The gawt damn 6 blade mechanical just ain't cutting it anymore in summer. Temps 92-102. Engine overheats . Straight 6. My radiator is 16.5" wide x 15.5" tall. Motor side, once 6 blade removed I only have about 2.25" clearance. 😢
The one to get is the 1995 T.BIRD with 4.6 i run just the hi speed 60 amp relay, themal swith and a circuit braker to stop back feeding when the engin is switched off.
I've been looking for an electric fan conversion for my Volvo for a long time. Never really found one I liked. I really like your video. I like it when people think outside the box, and start macgyvering to make things work . I found a fan assembly on RockAuto. I do not know the dimensions of the shroud assembly. Could you please give me the height and width measurements ? Thanks,
My biggest problem is the width. Space between the radiator and the engine (the pulleys) is only 3.33" in my car. This alone caused me grief and made my life miserable (LOL). Any idea how thick the assembly is? If it's too thick I hope I can cut it thinner without the fan reaching the radiator to damage it (which happened to me twice now). Great vid, BTW.
