cooling fan upgrade

cooling fan upgrade

Postby 1gSE » Fri Jul 03, 2009 2:50 pm

picked up some remanufactured flex-a-lite dual cooling fans (15.5" x 26.3" x 2.6") Fits perfect on the radiator. It has about...an inch or so on each side and it's MUCH smaller than the stock pieces. It pulled the temp down from 199 to 182 in about the same time the stockers would. I did this to make more room for the turbo and it's ridiculous huge turbine housing.

ships through UPS too :D

The part # for mines is #420. I think the flex-a-lite #220 will fit also. I think the only difference was the blade design
