For those of you willing to make one, the 90s ford Taurus has a super high flow two speed version that is a favorite among conversions.

Those fans are great but too thick, I only had 3 1/2 inches from radiator to water pump.

Yeah there is a downside to everything. I never converted one but read a lot on it. Guess that means that I don't have enough room either.

Volvo S60 and S80 electric fans fit and work great.
total investment was about 20 dollars as i put a #8617 relay in line, that was just about 10 dollars and the other little bits and pieces i figure were under that. :f: this shot shows fan marks in the fins on the rad. its NOT from this fan a little cutting and grinding a little paint |

Yeah my car does not have that much room, I have a few fans laying around and nothing thinner than 3 1/2 inches, so the two smaller ones were perfect.

Hey Tony, What did the motor that drives the water pump begin life as ? Is it converted from something else?
Where did you find it?

Its an electric water pump kit from moroso, they are under a $100, I picked it up used for $25 because I didnt know if I really wanted it or not and Im a cheap AMC guy. I cannot believe I spent 250 on the fans lol

Nice job on that Volvo fan. How deep is it from the radiator? I was going to get a Taurus fan but I think it's to deep.

You know, I kept two of those damned Volvo fans around for years thinking I was going to have a project for them, finally we tossed them. Now I need one again. Ah, life.
Glad to see that worked so well. Those fans move a LOT of air. |
