Title: T/C electric fans
Post by: blackcat on June 27, 2006, 08:22:21 PM
Does anyone know if the dual electric fans off a T/c will work on a v8 setup? if so any major benefit?

The major benefit of installing electric fans is that the engine is no longer wasting horsepower to spin the fan.

TC fans will not work in a V8 car - the fan motor bodies are too large and will interfere with the engine driven accessories (I forget which one it will actually hit but I think it was an important one, like the water pump :hick:)

Someone here did a MarkVIII fan swap.  Before the board switch they had picture of the install and everything.  Hopefully they will chime in.
