Guest Anonymous Posted February 18, 2002 Share Posted February 18, 2002 I've read the archives and found that 92 Taurus fans work well but will it fit with a L6 engine? Does anyone have any other suggestion of OE electric fans I could use model and year if possible? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fl327 Posted February 18, 2002 Share Posted February 18, 2002 you can use any electric fan. the taurus is a good fan because its used in oem apps, usually meaning they were built for daily driving and negative maintenance, these units and units like such last a very long time and can be very reliable. you could always buy one from summit or jegs and get their therm controls or run it off a switch.

Z-Gad Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 I tried using the Taurus fan (1990) for an L6 application. It was too deep 4.5", if I remember correctly. There just wasn't enough space between the water pump and the radiator to fit it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240Z Turbo Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 Several things to consider. You will want atleast 2000cfm worth of cooling. Typical 16" autozone fans flow 1600cfm, not enough so don't do it. Especially if you are in the south with the heat. Now, you have several choices. Permacool makes a nice fan that flows 2350-2900 depending on whether you run a shroud or not. Your best choice would be a Spal. They make a 16" fan that flows 2320cfm and is very thin, about 3"-3.25" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
