It seems like I have seem some people use fiero electric fans is this a worthy fan for the job? If it is not then what would be a good e-fan for my 89T2

I tried to search but each time it never even finished the search.

Thanks,
Josh

 

I have heard of some people using the Flex-A-Lite Blackmagik #150 electric fan. Yeah... the search option has been *** in the last couple of days. I feel your pain.

 

yeah I am just tryin to check out all my options and with the search feature down that certainly isnt helping

 

I just searched the 2nd Gen forum for "e-fan" and got 535 hits...

 

maybe the search function works better south of the equator....

 

The search feature has been really flaky as of late. No one is denying that there are a lot of posts about electric fan setups Problem is what good do the posts and information do if you cannot get to them via the search engine?

 

im using a ferio fan right now and havnt overheated in it yet. i used it in the summer at temps getting over 90 dagrees. it works great with a adjustable thermostat.

 

fan from an '88 Grand Am also works great...

 

just curious how well would the fan from a markVIII work?

understand it is a heavy heavy duty fan something like 4000+cfm I think

would need a FD alt though to run it

know it is overkill but anyone know about it?

 

im using a fan from a early 90s-ish dodge shadow. Fit like it was made for the rx7

 

I have a Fiero fan mounted inside the stock shroud. Looks very nice and clean. Grabbed an adjustable thermostat for like $20 from Advance Auto and the fan from the junkyard.

After getting my Autometer gauges wired up this past weekend, I was able to tune the thermostat in to kick on and cool down around 195-200F and turn off at 180.

The fan only took a minute or two to lower the temp once on....so I think it does a good job.

 

my buddy has had a fiero fan in his car less than a month and the motor started to go and kept popping fuses...back to clutch fan until he gets a black magic later. not worth the chance that the used oem 10-15 yr old fan will die and overheat your car in my opinion.

Aaron, thanks for the study session! I guess my thoughts were kinda blurred and now I see that I may not need an Efan or even want one for that matter. As far as the installation goes that would not be a problem I have a very good understanding of electronics and wiring although I appreciate the link to the proper efan install. I would how ever like to clean up that engine bay a bit but I am hesitant to do so now. I guess I might just deal with the larger stock fan. I will probably just spend the extra money on a new Koyo Radiator hopefully this will work with the stock fan
