What is the best dual fan setup, spal, intrepid, etc? Was thinking of intrepid setup due to parts availability. Opinions please! Thanks, Dave
My advice would be to go with the Taurus fan. It is very commonly used in custom type applications and has a flow rate of over 3500 cfm. One of the other automotive sites tested it against the popular aftermarket fans and it out performed every aftermarket fan they tested including the dual spal set up. You can get them used on ebay for around $50 but I bought mine new from Oreilly's for $129 with a lifetime warranty. My car runs cooler in town than it does going down the highway now! It worked so well on my car a buddy of mine switched his 70 Chevelle with 515 BBC from a 16" Spal to the Taurus fan and he said the difference was night and day. Do a interent search and you will find lots of info on the fan being used on everything from Cobra kit cars all the way to rock crawlers!
The mk 8 fan flows better than the taurus fan over 4000 cfm the taurus fan comes in a close second...the mk 8 fan is on 93-98 mk 8s i believe..Its got an orange and white sticker in the top the blue wire is for the high speed dont forget to get the plug and a decent legnth of the wire when you get the fan.. I got one at the pic a part yard for $25..
how many amps? is it single or dual?
