I hear that Taurus fans work as well, but have not tried them myself.

Yes, I've heard that also. There was a big review on electic fans somewhere around here with some guy who chose the fiero fan over the taurus fan because of the air it pushed per minute...

Whats the minimum CFM that an E-fan should flow for our engines? I think I recall someone saying 1600CFM minimum, but Im not sure. Id like something around 2000CFM....

You know you can buy a new perma cool 2,950 cfm fan for like $100 from jegs or summit. That seems to be the fan that moves the most air for the least money from what I have found, will the fiero ran move more air than that.

Sweet, I think there is a S/C T-bird at my local junkyard. And yes, ours you do need to be 18 to get into. I was going there b4 I was 18 though, whenever they asked how old I was, I just said 18..they said ok
