Weren`t they using a sbc for a test engine ? Torqueless little bastards unless u get into a bigger one. Our bigblocks probly handle the fan better, due to more torque to start with. I cant see 30 h.p. in a fan either, maybe 15 at the most on a small block. ???????
Horsepower is horsepower no matter what motor it’s on. I don’t believe a fan is going to draw anywhere near 30 hp, but whatever it draws it would be the same on whatever engine you have it on.
