These fans have upper and lower mounting(s).
I fabricated brackets for the upper mounting points which attach to the
metal plate in front of the rad. A great mod and keeps the eng. much cooler

Electric fan
Check into flex-a-lite, I got the 180 black magic extreme. It is very nice and very powerfull. I also took it a step further and got a Ron Davis custom aluminum radiator. All this may be over kill now but not when I put in the 1993 13brew with single turbo set-up. The fan and raditor mod took some planning, custom fabrication of mounts , and little cutting of the fan around the lower radiator hose. I also installed a 100amp alternator from a 1993 rx-7. A guy named Silverotor was selling them on here set up for FB's but it took some research to figure out how to wire it up correctly. You need the alternator if you do this electric fan as it pulls 18 amps when it is running.

The black magic comes with a nice thermostat module and thermostat. You can see it mounted to the top of my fan. If you have a little electrical knowledge you will be fine. It comes with pretty good intructions. I like the thermostat, seems to work well. Takes a little time to dial it in but after that you are good to go. Thanks for the complment I appreciate it.

The model # is 180 Black Magic Extreme. As for the VB fan it may work differently in a FB, and you must supply it enough amperage. I have seen guys on here that have had good results with the VB fan. I dont think it would work well for a turbo. Also using it with a shroud would help. There is a thread on here where a guy rivited it to his existing shroud with some modification.
