Spal fan source

Does anyone know where Mike bought his Spal fans? I need a source for two 14" fans. May need them by weeks end!! I just need more airflow for my A/C!! I may have to drive BADBOW on a 1000 mile trip to deliver a camper shell.

The dual "Fan Kit" that came with my Be Cool radiator setup were SPAL. Might want ot look into that as I know they sell the fan kit seperately.

I can't remember where he bought his fans. (IIRC, didn't you have electric fans?)

You can get a Spal curved blade fan from Speedway Motors or, for more of a selection, from Yogi's. Don't know much about The Fanman, but he carries Spal.

Would a viper fan that you've mentioned in the past work?

Yes the Viper fan will work. I need to measure the radiator. The fan might need a little trimming. I just don't know the dimensions of the Viper setup. My truck however is already set up for dual 14" fans. I just want to replace my current fans.
I already have a Mark VIII fan too. I have the fan reserved for my Dakota. I may just consider trying the Mark III fan since I have it. Here is the fan set up http://www.fordmuscle.com/archives/2...an/index.shtml
It has dual speed capabilities. Low and high speed.

I'm still around, sometimes.

I bought my Spal fan setup from a place in California named Scotts Manufacturing. No website. I'll look for the phone number if you need it.

Hi Mike,
Do you have the part numbers available? I'm looking at the 1700 CFM 14" fans. I've yet to find the chrome ones. I see nothing but black moldings.

Mine come in a kit so the part numbers I have don't match with Spal's but here is a direct link to Spal's fan technical specs webpage. Scott's called my fans 14" but Spal calls them 13". Anyway, my fans are the 30102044 on this page. I'm not sure Spal makes chrome fans.
