Hi Guys

The F*^d Taurus dual electric fan is awesome and will cool the heck out of your engine. As much as I hate to say it I dont beleive there is a GM electric fan that works as well and is as QUIET. I would put a Taurus electric fan on mine if I needed an electric fan.

A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Life is not about what you have, but who you have to share it with.

Re: NEED A LITTLE ADVICE Plz/electric fan

The one you want is Taurus Fan 3.8L... 4500CFM airflow, 3-wire hookup, 2-speeds (high/low). Dimensions are 17" Tall, 22" Wide, & 5" Deep. This thing will cool anything. I had one on a Jeep with a 350TPI I ran in the woods. Never a problem. 1985 (I think) -1995 Models. As far as controling it with no problem try this http://dccontrol.com/fancontrol.htm[/URL] You don't want your fan not to perate appropriately and any of these are awesome.
