Default Electric Fan

Mike,

The fan from a 97/98 Lincoln Mk VIII will bring a smile to your wallet and a low temperature to your engine. You can get them for about $30 from a wrecking yard. The earlier Mk VIII fans would move 3800 cfm. The 97/98 versions move 5000 cfm. There is nothing in the aftermarket that even comes close. The fan is available new for around $200 if you hunt a little.

If you use it remember lots of air draws lots of current. This puppy can pull upwards of 50 amps so be sure to use robust dedicated circuits and a switching relay for control.

Ed
