Anyone have a recommendation for electric radiator fans. 83 2.3? I don't have a shroud so I'll probably just upgrade instead of getting a shroud?

I had a 14in. Hayden electric fan in my isuzu with a temp probe in the radiator so it would come on and off auto. Worked pretty good. Def. better than the oem clutch fan. Millions quieter too.

Just put a 14" Torqflo fan in my 86 a couple weeks ago, pics are in my build thread (first gen). I agree with Lethal, MUCH quieter and more efficient.

That's the one I was looking at. Thanks a bunch.

i would try and keep the clutch fan myself as those little alternators are not very powerful and go out often.........but that is just what i have seen......

I'm using a flex a light fan I had from my old civic build. Amp rating on that is really low.
