DAAAAMMMNNNN , for a 20. dollar fan this thing kicks butt.
Went down to ramchargers speed shop and bought one to see how it works , while I fab up my electrics .
this thing sounds like a attic fan. I put a peice of cardboard in front of the grill and it stuck there from the air being pulled in.
I let it idle up to temp and as soon as i hit the gas the temp drops 10 degrees right off the bat.I give this 2 thumbs up.

be careful of flexfans, they have been known to come apart and slice through hoods, but as a temporary fan it should be ok.
