Just a word of caution. When using an E-Fan and a large single turbo, be wary of the turbo pulling enough CFM to pull the blades into the shroud. I have seen it on 2 FC's one running a T51s and the other with a 20b running a T76, under boost with an open face the fans were ripped apart. Flex-o-lite twins similar to what you have pictured.

If you have a Taurus fan and it works for you great. My crappy Summit fan works too for daily driving. Autocross is a whole other ballgame. You drive the car really hard for 40-90 seconds then stop. Cars do not like to stop after a hard 90 seconds of pushing, I usually try to take a short ride at about 50 MPH but that is not feesable sometimes due to the venue layout.
i used spal fans btw, they are a little harder to get but i needed something super thin (i think the thin fan is 2", i have 3" between the radiator and the crank pulley) |
do any of you have the dimensions for the stock radiator?

jim, did you get that expensive fan yet? I'm curious who made the motors for it, I bought the $80 mr gasket ball bearing fan from summit just to see what it was like and the motor casing has REVCOR cast into it, the fan turns out to be a revcor fan simply in a different labeled box. http://www.revcor.com, it's actually pretty nice and will bolt right up to the simple cf shroud i'm putting together. I bet mr gasket paid revcor $5 a fan.

I bought the 16" fan this guy sells, turns out it is a Zirgo fan, retails well above his buy it now prices http://www.zirgo.com/detail.lasso?itemid=ZF16 So I am not too upset, the fan is not loud like most and will definately work for my application |

I am very pleased w/ the design. I will install it next week. I want to run a heavy guage wire straight fom the battery to it. Then install a soleniod for the ground to turn it on and off. So I get the most power and CFM's out of it. RX7 13B 4 UR AZZ - I do not have a stock radiator I have a fluidyne but I think its the same size width and height wise. 19.5" tall by 22.5" wide. |

There are a series of rubber flaps on it so when you are sitting still or going slow they flap shut and all the air is being drawn by the fan. When at speed the flap open to let air flow over entire radiator.

Well, you just offended me.
