From Summit Part # BCI-75007. I have a generic Summit $80 fan in the car now and I am not happy w/ it. I think this one will do the job. I measured my radiator and it will fit perfectly. It will get the whole radiater into the cooling game at low speeds. i.e. Autocrosses / Traffic where I have been havine some issues.
Anyone else using this or something similar. I really wanted a shroud so it will use the whole radiator.

I'm all for not overheating the engine, but I'm not seeing what that BeCool does that makes your engine less likely to overheat than a cheaper one that pulls comparable air. Maybe it's a magic fan, I don't know, I thought the black magic flex-a-lite fan was already too pricy @ $200 when I bought it.
I mean ****, these are simple DC motors, these people are raping us.

Go to the local junk yard and purchase a 1990-94 3.8L V6 Taurus/Sable?lincoln Town Car eFan. I have one and it really move quite a bit of air. The built in shroud fits almost perfectly and it was only $35. Give it a try before you go spending $280 on a fan.

3000$ ecu
2???$ motor
????$ rebuild
I think 280 is affordable if it's the best solution out there. Plus it's the shroud and everything.
Hell I'm getting ready to spend 280 on a goddamn ignitor because it has a lifetime warranty. Who ever said sports cars were cheap??

Why don't you guys test them side by side when you purchase the be-cool fan. That would be some good information. I'll buy the Taurus fan from you when you are done if you don't want it.
