Best cars to get an E-fan from??

Well I will be going to the junkyard soon, and I wanted to get an electric fan from something to put on my 7, and I just wanted to know if there were any cars that had the best ones to use? I'ev heard that a fiero GT or MR2 fan is good, but im pretty sure I have none of those at the yard. I thought maybe anything with a big-*** v-8, since that would need alot of cooling. Or do you think it would just be better to buy a new one, and if so, what kind and where can I get it?? Thanks alot.

Fans from any Dodge or Chrysler turbo engines work great. These would be from 1985 to 1991

If you find one with a intercooler setup, this would be either a T2, T3 or a T4 engine setup and these fans really pull alot of air and are almost the exact size of the RX radiator.

I have had a T2 fan on my car for over 6 months now and it works great down here in Hot *** south Florida.

Ps: I got mine for $15 at the boneyard!

Mine's from a 91-96 ford escort. The good thing about this is, escorts are everywhere, so theyre easy to find and dirt cheap. Mine cost $35. IT is about the same size as teh fiero fan, but shrouded, nearly perfectly fitting the FC radiator. Pics are on this page:

I was thinking of getting one from a Fiero GT.
Are they pretty simple to wire in.
