Cooling Fan - What's the best?

2FastLX · 03-17-2001, 10:59 AM

I've heard the Black Magic fans are good, but is there any brands out there that are better? What is the best fan to use for a car that will eventually see 400HP? Not that I'm going to be pushing that magical number any time soon, but I want a fan that will work in case I ever do. Thanks.

You should wait another month (if possible) for me to finish my motor and put the BM Flex-a-lite in the car and let u know. I'll be over 400HP with a stroker 393 and the fan is only rated at 300HP. The fan is in a box right behind me and I'll send it back if someone could tell me that it not work well enough for my engine. This is my first time doing this so I'm tking a chance.

I just put the BM Fle-A-Lite in mine last night. I had the same questions, so we'll see what happens. Hopefully A/C isn't out of the question any more!
