I was thinking about putting one. Has anyone here had this done? Was it an EZ install. Did you have probs with your car AFTER the install? Did you engine run quieter? I know it's alot og Q's........

installation is a breeze, there were no problems, yes it does run quieter.

One more thing....Before I buy it, did you have to run alot of wires? Was it a direct conect to the battery? How was the wiring as a whole? What size battery & alt do you have or use? I currentl have a 575 in mine.

usually all you will need is a ground and a power source. i usually hooked mine up to body ground and a positive power sound from the fuse block to a switch.

there are other ways to do it. its not really hard at all. you could also which i have done and like is run a thermostatic switch to control the fan,(approxiamately 18.00) so you dont forget to turn it off:stupid: like i have also done.

there isnt that much in the way of wiring or a mess and it doesnt make your engine bay look bad. i had a larger battery but thats me because i like the extra power in my battery.

i dont think it would be a problem with the battery you have.

the alternator and everything else was stock.

it will free up a few ponies and take away the jet engine sound though you wont feel a power gain. i would also get a puller fan and not a pusher fan.

good luck and dont worry its not that hard of a thing to do.

here is a pic of mine

There is a school of thought that the twin carb cars, i.e. 240, 260, 280 and the Fairlady sports cars, require a constant breeze to prevent vapour lock in the fuel system.

Although the thermo fan will adequately and correctly cool the engine, it will not provide that "constant breeze" to the fuel system.

Just some food for thought.

i always run my car with the fan on and it pushes alot more air than the stock fan clutch will ever produce

Do the ones you can get from an Auto Store be the same ones and have the same performance like the oves in MSA or VB? I just go my Z running agian today & it sounds like a wind storm when I'm driving.
