Thanks Dan! I just ran across a thread where a 4 blade fan broke and went through the hood! Made me alittle nervous, but I guess it has made it 47 yeas already!

Is that the correct orientation for that fan?

No, the fan in this pic is standing still. They don't work unless you spin 'em.

(Yes, the fan in the pic is installed right way round.)

I suspect that if the car was not pointed to the center of the earth, and were on its four wheels, one would expect a lot better performance from that fan… When spinning, that is.

How about, Image or Image or Image or Image?

Seriously though, I also prefer the five blade thermostatically controlled viscous clutched fan. Quiet, effective, less drag than a direct connected fan. I also like electric fans. I plan to convert all my old vans as well as my brother's van and his Duster to electric radiator fans.
