slim line rad fans

as above really i bought a 50mm thick radiator and want to get some slim line fans do people get 2x 12inch?

Depends on turbo and manifold i had x2 10" fans but had to go to 1 12" fan with different turbo and manifold set up

I have got a different manifold but it keeps the stock position plus stock tubby was thinking about mounting them on the otherside if i wanted so i could have 2x12 then johnny?

2 x 10'' fans will be fine leighton

have a look on ebay as there dirt cheap on there (the fake spal and kenlowe fans are good) as i have them fitted on my car and no troubles in over 2 years

Cheers bob i can get them orderd then egay here i come lol

i just use the fitting kit where you poke the ties through the rad and pull them tight works well

Thats the ones ive orderd now all i got to decide which side im going to put them any thoughts or opinions welcome. ...?

i always have mine drawing air through rad pulling.what ic you running is there room to put them infront ? are the ones you have bought reversable some only work one way (i think)

Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=400354662714 these are the ones i bought i could squeeze them behind the front still going to be room at stock position so im not anti putting them back there was just intrested in what other people have done. im not sure if they are reverseable or not lol

Had a quick check with the fans and you can swith the polarity and also swap the fans blades for abit of suckey or blowey

Should do nicely. I dont know of any advantages or dis with either side of rad so i can not comment on that

Maybe il just go stock position with them then on a thought i would guess drawing hot air out of the engine bay would be better but i guess with speed il assume it will just head in that way anyhow. ...

if they will fit in usual place then i would fit them there tbh
if you want to fit on other side then just reverse the polarity
either way will work just fine!

Thanks bob just wasnt sure if either way was more sufficiant cooling wise or not il just put them in stock place save all the messing about.

Pull fans behind the rad are likely to be more efficient. The fan in front of the rad upsets the incoming airflow.

Thanks for the info very intresting read. .... It defo beats working

I've just mounted twin 10" push fans on mine after fitting a new manifold strangely enough i reversed the blades and it still sucked =( swapped the wires good as gold
theres more than enough room on the front side

How do you find the temps have they alterd by much or not really noticable?
