How many amps does it draw?
I like the built in fan shround to the radiator edges.
I will look through my notes as I know I checked it and if not, I will tomorrow after work. The thing moves a ton of air and is so quiet.

A word to the wise, i was given by a member here. With anything close to a stock charging system , the HHR fan will flat eat up a battery in a mighty short time. A guy told me he had a 50 amp denso on his car and with that fan, ran out of juice on a sortie on the street one night because of how much juice that HHR eats. That is the only reason i dont currently have one, and just bought a much lower amP draw new fan for my car....aa i have a stock alt, not even as good as his Denso that didnt cut the mustard.

I don't have a stock alt, but I am going to measure the draw tonight when I get off work. if I remember correctly it drew way less power than most previous fans I have had. Also, since the swap I have noticed zero difference in battery charging or anything electrical related. as mentioned though, like everything on here, your results may vary.

I think my factory alt is about 37 amps peak, so 30+ amps on startup would create problems for me. the fan i bought draws 7.5 max

The poster said About 30 Amps on startup, meaning Less. So with your 37 amp peak alt., You would have more then enough power to run the mizer/Hiflow HHR fan. mike

Its the summit 26in Rad. I want to say its 2 1/2" thick but not sure and cant measure at this moment.
As close as ours is I dont know if it will clear with a plate. But I do believe ProSport is running one but that is with a big block.
The HHR fan has small cooling fins on the back of the motor that could be shaved off and that would give it a little bit more.

Is the Meziere water pump shorter than the mechanical pump? There does seem to be plenty of room in B-bodies and other, it's only the A-bodies that need every last 1/4 inch  -Charles

I have an electric water pump, msd, electric fan,fuel pump, starter, etc, it definately wouldnt work for me. And understand that a 37 amp(max) output alternator isnt putting out that much juice constantly, i dont think, that is just peak.
Like i said earlier, a guy on here has a 50 amp denso and had to take the HHR fan off because his charging system couldnt support it. that was enough to sway me, as i dont have nearly as much alternator as he did, and even he had problems.

If your battery can't handle starting the fan I don't think you'd ever get your engine started.
Thanks for the tread, it reminded me I want to buy one for my '68 Barracuda

I have the fan on the front side of my radiator and it is a pusher now.
It works Great and fit in the space with only little mods done.
This is on a B body though.
Ok this was posted a couple days ago, I PMed him to as if reversing the polarity reversed rotation, I haven't gotten a response back so could someone else with one of these fans tell me if reversing the leads reverses the fan rotation? Thanks!!

Maybe 
Do you have any pics of that area? How big a radiator? What did you have to cut or remove to get it in there?

That 1/4" clearance is with your radiator in the stock position (no cutting of the core support)? hmmm won't work so good with a 3/8" motor plate... Wonder what it would cost to have 3/8" milled off my WP housing to compensate for it? I'd definitely like to see pics though  -Charles

Here's where I'm at as of tonight---
I cut some of the rad support out and set the rad/fan in there . Now Ive got around 3/4" clearance - looks pretty good in there now
Im going to start making brackets tomorrow night , should have it all done some time Thursday - I will definitely post some pics .

I am also thinking of using that fan and would like to see pics, but it sounds like you cannot leave the radiator in the stock position?

You "could" ...
but you would have to either
1. run an electric pump
2. use some shallow head bolts for the pulley (kinda like converter bolts) ?
it would still be close ....

I moved mine forward and also fitted a larger 31" rad at the same time.

You have to trim the top edge and the sides to let the rad into the panel so that the rad sits tight to the upright of the front panel.
Here's a pic of one that's done

I have a factory alternator , raced all night and i ran all my lights . No problems . Didnt have to run the fan between rounds because it worked so good while it was running I realize driving around for a few hours on the street might be different

1. All of this appears to be done with big block abody's and the mods to make it fit seem to be minimal. Based off this, there shouldnt be any clearance issues with a SMALL-block abody?
We just put one on my Duster a couple days ago. I have a stock 22" 2 core radiator. We trimmed 1/2" off the face of the shroud, after that it slid right into place on the upper and lower tank flanges. We also had to trim off the plastic cover on the back of the fan motor, which seems to be there to make it look prettier. We could have cut off more from the shroud front face. The fan is just shy of an inch from the radiator.
Here my husband welded 1 1/2 angle tabs on the factory mount brackets:
Here is the HHR fan on the radiator, he drilled holes through the fan mounts and angle brackets, then added bolts.
that's not my sexy hand in there.
Couple observations:
1. Our Dart had 3/4" more room than my Duster between the water pump and radiator. Uses the same stock radiator. This fan will fit a small block Dart better.
2. Radiator mount brackets are not all the same. The Dart's radiator sat closer to the core support than the Dusters did.
This fan is a $59 shipped with discount code from Rock Auto off a 2006 Chevy HHR.

Well, to keep this post current, I just ordered the HHR fan from Rock Auto too. AND I'm waiting on some dimension info from Griffin pertaining to one of their "Pro series" rads I saw on Summit. Reason?? After this pass   Went back to the pits, and noticed coolant running down under the rad support. Loaded it up, and went home. Made it to the semis too  . Took the fan out today, and saw this. Somehow, the fan decided to bury itself into the rad  , opening up 5 or 6 tubes, and making the rest VERY thin. Rad is junk. The Zirgo fan won't be used again either. Don't know why it happened, but when I lay the fan on the workbench, the blades touch the bench before the "shroud". Like the shroud warped or something. IDK  . Probably cheaper to buy another rad than getting this one fixed. Anyhow, the summit rad is 2.25" think at the core, and 3.5 ish at the tank. Griffin has a 2 row, with 1" tubes which is 2" think at the core. I'm waiting to see how thick the tanks are. If they're thinner than the summit rad, it MAY enable me to fit the rad and fan without trimming the core support  .  codfish ps where's the throwing money smilie

I just installed one in my Dart . Man that is close. I have a CSR water pump and an alumimen rad . I had to move it over to the drivers side about 2" to clear the pump. It is about 1/8" from the pump. It does pull alot of air . I did not have a chance to try it on the street.I raced all weekend the car barly went over 185 degrees.

$55 from www.rockauto.com . Just look up a cooling fan for a 2007 chevy HHR. They supposedly pull 3000 or so cfm. Lots of guys here love them. Do your self a favour and read this entire thread. Lots of good info shared. codfish

Cod- i have the griffin thin radiator too . i can measure for you if you need it .
I'd appreciate that.
You have the part number by any chance? Just wondering if it's the same I am looking at. And are the tubes welded or epoxied to the tanks?
thanks

Anyone know of any other vehicles that use the same electrical plug to fit the HHR fan?
I'd kinda like to know this myself since the GM dealer here can't find a connector available separately for the HHR unit.
Oh....and don't even think about ordering a new fan unit from a dealer up here....175.00 is about the going rate....rediculous compared to what you Yankee boys are paying. 
My wife got mine thru her wrecking business for $80.00 including freight charges....yes, used, but in perfect condition.
Maybe try the salvage yards for a 2006-08 2.4litre one.

Is it just two male spade connectors? I never thought about trying to order one of those.

Why not just cut the wiring on the current connector and put in your own connector if you have a connector for both sides of the wiring......
There isn't much of a pigtail to work with coming of the fan motor. I also have easy access to a yard with a bunch of chevys, so why not snip one. One thing for sure, I don't want to wire it up directly without a detachable plug.
