Do you have a 67 barracuda 383 7 blade fan picture?

OK couple more tidbits of info regarding this "202" fan. Member Ch1ll alerted me to the fact that there is another fan listed for the '67 A body big block cars that came equipped with the Cleaner Air Package, part number 2863203. This was confirmed by my parts encyclopedia friend so I have no reason to doubt it. He said mine is the only one of either he has been able to document in person so these are pretty rare parts.

I personally do not have any info or pictures on that '203' part and whether it differs in any way from the '202' fan being discussed here. C.A.P. cars had slightly different tuning specs than non-emissions cars so perhaps there was some particular design element of it that enabled it to do its job in the same way as the other fan under those distinct circumstances. That's just a guess on my part though since Chrysler claimed in their '67 C.A.P. introduction literature from there was no difference in performance between C.A.P. and non-C.A.P. cars.

Additionally, as I mentioned earlier, there is a particular spacer used with the 202 fan, part number 1851960. Again, I believe it to be .7" depth. Since there is more room in a 383 B body than an A, it would make sense a shallower spacer would be needed or the fan would be in the radiator. My buddy said that spacer was not listed in his '67 parts book but he did find it in his 1968 manual. The curious thing is that in 1968 that spacer was used on 383-equipped cars with the more common "224" solid fan. Head hurt yet?

Last two points; the 202 fan is singularly unique because of the shape of the blades. Chrysler made a few different 18" diameter, 7 blade, 2" pitch solid fans but none had the same blade shape as that one. The other thing my friend pointed out to me is that the rivets holding the blades to the center section on the 202 fan are flat as opposed to the more rounded ones found on the 224 fan. I'm not even going to attempt speculating on why that is!

Hope that helps anyone looking for info on these particular fans.
