Dang, have to acquire more fans, must keep ahead…… Seriously I have seen quite a variety of fans and noticed that some have reversed curvature of the blades compared to others. Same puller blade angle, but blade is cupped the other way. Aerodynamic/airflow modeling advances apparently … Also I believe that the mounting face of the plastic fans is not in the center of the hub, make sure da fan is on da right way….

Well I just searched my parts and I do not seem to have any other fans (I really thought I had an extra or two). I would like to see about getting a correct fan from you please.

June 13, 2024Jun 13 comment_666457 If one has some spare fans.. i hear that you can't store them lying horizontal? The oil gets in places where it can't get out and the clutch gets damaged.. any of you have any experience with that? (I had one and stash them away vertical!)

Do you need the clutch? or just the blades? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/69008-fan-hits-radiator/?&page=2#findComment-666460 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you need the clutch? or just the blades? No clutch needed, I have a new one. I just need the fan itself, thank you for verifying. 🙂 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/69008-fan-hits-radiator/?&page=2#findComment-666461 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 13, 2024Jun 13 comment_666474 So it looks like I have about ten 8 blade and only four 7 blade fans. Seems to me I have an 8 blade in my 70 with a stock radiator and a metal shroud. Works well. I will PM the pictures and discuss a possible transaction there.
