![]() I have a few questions regarding electric fans.
First, is anyone running a electric fan without using a new alternator? Second, is one 10" fan enough or do I need two? I may have found a deal for two 10" electric fans for fairly cheap.

![]() I don't remember what size I used, but I pulled the radiator with the shroud attached, measured inside the shroud, purchased the biggest single fan that would fit inside the shroud. It gave a factory look with the original shroud still in place and the fan tucked inside. Now when I pull the radiator, it all comes out as one unit.

![]() Dude, only way i would go is the, some will disagree, but the black magic fan for 5.0, it mounts with its own shroud, and mine doesnt draw off the alterator that bad at all.
I still have the same alternator the car came with, although no underdrive pullies, but also may have an upgraded alternetor, being i have an ex-dps car ![]() ------------------ 90 lx coupe: Mac cold air fenderwell, accel supercoil,advncd ignition,3-core radiatr, FMS alum D/S, Black magic fan, 3.27grs, 3chbr flows.

I have heard that the black magic fan was pretty good, I will be getting one soon as well! Joe |
