It will have a 440 and a 4 speed trans no A/C etc. I cannot put a clutch or fixed blade fan on it or I would (engine sits low in compartment but is the most practical place for it ) Please let me know what is working for you guys Thanks Matt All steel 3800 lbs with me in it 65 Coronet 451 CID Indy 440-1 heads by Dwayne Porter racing heads . ..... 10.31 @ 129.4 mph 1.40 60 ft ALL MOTOR!!!!

It comes on when the a/c is on but when it stopped working for a while I still drove at hiway speeds and ran cool..most any fan will do as long as you have the proper radiator

I was thinking that it cant hurt to have a fan that is overkill though All steel 3800 lbs with me in it 65 Coronet 451 CID Indy 440-1 heads by Dwayne Porter racing heads . ..... 10.31 @ 129.4 mph 1.40 60 ft ALL MOTOR!!!!

Yeah the spal is a straight blade mine is S blade with the griffin rad W 1 1/2 inch tubes so it cools pretty good for an electric fan. The shroud is also a good thing to have with the fan.
