Title: Quick question about Electric Cooling fans
Post by: 1979C20 on July 26, 2011, 06:22:59 am

When I was at pick-a-part the other day, there was a Frod Tortoise(Taurus) Missing the hood and grill. And staring me in the face were 2 HUGE electric fans. Any idea if they would work and provide sufficient cooling? I would love to have them, and they look as thought they'd fit.

Also, according to a few results in a google search, the Taurus fans and the MKVIII fans will OUTCOOL ANY aftermarket fan set up. So I guess they'll work for cooling, I just have to see if theyll fit?

With how often the Vulcans ate water pumps they'd have to be decent.

You should be able to get them to fit with a little creativity. What I would do is add in a adjustable thermostat relay kit so they turn on at a setting of your choice. It works for me because I can turn them on sooner when im wheeling.

Haulin It had a very good deal in here a while back about some Caddy fans he installed in his truck. It was very informative and Vile had posted a wiring diagram also.
