Hooking up elec. fan, What to do about a coolant res.?
 
Like the subject says....What should I do? I have no idea. I've heard some weird ideas like water bottles n stuff, But I don't know what size or anything like that.

I just used a Jegs overflow bottle and fabricated a mount on the side of the radiator. See attached pic.

What kind of fan did you put in? My BM fan had a bracket for the overflow that would be easy enough to fabricate if you have room to put it in a somewhat factory location.

I used the biggest fan Auto Zone sells.

I bought the biggest one I saw at Discount Auto. 16in in diameter, CFM is 1700 and Amp Draw is 13.7. And about my own question, I actually am going to be able to use my stock over flow bottle as it kinda fits around the fan on the rad. I was going to zip tie it but a buddy of mine says he can make me up some kind of braket. Now I just have to get off my lazy ***** and wire it all up. Hey does anyone know how many CFM the stock fan moves, I'm hoping my universal is better!
