electric fan.....which one..
so spring is almost here and i am planning to put a electric fan on my car. but i am looking for a good set up. i don't know if i should get a single or duel fan.
anyone who has a good set up that is working for them let me know.
(last summer i had a autozone fan on it and i went through 3 of them..they all burnt out..)

even if you don't buy this one..make sure you follow the how-to in the faq and get one that flows more than 2500cfm

its really simple to install as well, you dont need a separte relay everything is built in.
ive got it working two ways, one through microtech into the manual switch, then also by its own internal temp switch.

Another flex a lite user for almost 10 years without a problem 
I just installed a proform fan on my father's SA. It seems to be the very same one as the flex a lite black magic, but without the price tag.

Black Magic Extreme, 3,300Cfm and it has a shroud that covers the whole radiator unlike the black magic 150. More expensive but obviously better.
*edit*
Oh yeah I forgot to mention that flex-a-olite thermostats are crappy. Mine was burnt out by the installer. HOWEVER, after calling flex-a-lite and explaining what happened they asked me to fax them my original receipt for the fan and they would send me a new thermostat. They sent me their new thermostat design that they don't even sell yet and it works like a charm.

You need to do the FD alt. upgrade and you won't have any problems.
You could throw in a S5 alt for less $$.

Another option is the Permacool 16 inch fan.
It's lovely nickname is the Fingerchopper because it is an unshrouded and metal fan bladed.
It flows a bit more cfm than the Blackmagic BUT you'll need to make a shroud for it.
I bought mine for around $100 then bought the Black magic thermoswitch for $20.
I've yet to install it though. I have also heard that the thermoswitches are not great(my friends blew under 3 months)

compare it against the black magic flex a lite, and the only difference you will find is on the price!!
