My Cooling Improvement Project (hopefully)

[quote="Dart67";1969983913]Believe it or not I told my buddy the same thing yesterday.

I have already made an adapter on my metal lathe to adapt the clutch fan assembly to the water pump hub. I want to use the same fan without the clutch and see how it works.

I will take a photo of my "Home-Brewed" fan adapter and post it in the AM.

I also have a seven blade mopar fan that bolts to the water pump, but the blades are almost flat on ut compared to the clutch fan.

I have plans to try it in the AM.

I really do not want to go to electric fans unless it is a last resort.

Herb[/quote] your saying to use the clutch setup with the existing light weight fan but "locking" it so it works as a straight direct drive fan? As a side note I used a 5 blade, and a 7 blade and both are about the same, the extra blades on the 7 would just turn slower due to the week clutch. I also used a direct drive seven blade but it uses to much hp and makes a lot of noise and was just very very slightly better but not worth it with hp and noise issue
