They WORK ...and they will flatten-OUT at higher rpms .. but they are heavy and can "tax" a v-belt if you want to rpm the engine up-quick.

Also look into the clutch and fan that the fan comes in from the back side of the clutch. the bolt spacing of the fan is different and has a large hole in the center to clear the clutch to water pump flange. may help with clearace.
