Ok, some here say that you get 20-30 HP if you convert to electric fans. But what about the '96 (mine) that already have electric fans. Does that mean that I am actually getting the extra HP over the pre-96?

 

ive never heard anything about 96 models having electric fans as stock from the factory. then again, i have never even bothered to look - maybe ill do that when i get off work in about an hour

 

A mechanic told me that the fan on our cars is a hydrolic fan. Not electric.

 

I have a 92 300, and I read all this about 20 - 30 hp gain if you go electric fan(s), well I see all this talk but don't see anyone doing the walk ??? does anything have proof or anything more on this subject ?? I would do it in a heart beat if I knew I could get 15+ out of my car by doing this...............



Thanx for your time............

yea, no kidding, 15-30hp for $300? sign me up, k thx i dont know of any CL members (or anybody at all, for that matter) that has tried this. the only company ive heard of that sells them for sc's is summit racing, but i cant find any mention of it on their website. has it been discontinued? does anybody know anything AT ALL about this?! someone speak up if yu know, PLEASE!

 

I believe the original post was in regards to an SC300. The SC400 uses a hydrolic fan and does not run off of the crank or a pulley therefore installing an electric fan would be a waste of time.

 

Sc400's have a hydraulic fan. Sc300's are all belt driven.
A set of flex-a-lite 210's can be had for a couple hundred dollars.
I'm installing mine tomorrow, keep an eye out for the post.

 

I see you have a 93 300, So you are going to add your fan(s) tomorrow (today)....... Are you able to take pics of the install?? Also where did you get your setup at if you don't mine my asking.......? Please keep us informed I am really looking to do this if it is as much HP as I hear is possible........ I take it you have a dual fan setup? And you are going to install yourself?? LOL, sorry for all the questions
