Dual Electric Fans

I know there's a few members who have dual electric fans on the cars. If you have pics, please post them and identify the fans (i.e. manufacturer, model, etc.)...

I'm going to install an e-fan and I think the dual's look sharp.

Thanks!

I wouldn't worry about looks. The Black Magic from summit is the answer. Though it's a little pricey, it is the highest flowing Efan I have ever seen, and with a good radiator she'll be cool as a cucumber on those hot *** Kansas days.

Good luck

If you want Duals, SPAL makes a really good setup.

MarkS, thanks for the link. That may have been what I've seen. I bought a '94 dual fan from a Probe GT thinking I was getting what I was needing - but it was WAY too big... I decided to find another rather than try and retrofit it somehow...

I bought the 16 inch Mr gasket electric fan, It's slim and works perfectly. $150 cdn I believe. Then I bought the flex-a-lite thermo switch to complete the job.

Turned out a Very clean install. And works perfectly.

The color is Maya Gold, but I like to think of it as Mutabi Gold - it's so '80's.

I think I've backed off the dual fan idea. I don't want to go to the expense of an aftermarket unit. I've got my eye on an Escort or Taurus single fan unit.

here's one i used to use. i'm selling it now. i'm using the clutch fan again for now. this fan worked pretty damn well this summer the few times my car ran. you can use the stock shroud too with a tiny bit of cutting near the bottom. it's awesome. it just needs to be cleaned up.
