I want to install an electric fan, mainly to get rid of the fan howl at
higher rpm.
The plan is an 11" pusher fan from Racer Parts Wholesale ($45) mounted
in front of the (downflow) radiator.
If I mount it through the radiator, I would have to break the plastic
zip-tie type mounts every time I want to remove the radiator. The
alternative is to mount it on brackets to the body.
I saw that VB sells an adjustable thermostat for only $15. Has anyone
bought this one? I am wondering how it mounts to the cooling system and
how well it works. Another option is to find a fan switch from a
different car that screws into the temp gauge fitting on the radiator.
Any comments on my plans?
