I saw feets' thread on the c-class great idea i just cant find one around. I need a fan clutch and shroud, though i can probably get a shroud for 5 dollars at lkq. The local discount has an Imperial clutch fro 29 dollars, but fans also need to be special ordered. What sites do yall recommend?

What kind of cooling system is in the car? Radiator, fan, shroud, etc. We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind. - Stu Harmon

There is no fan system in the car at the current moment nor when i took her around the block. I only have a 28" radiator that i have no id on the functionality of. I do have factory A/C but is not running as the condenser is cracked and was jimmy rigged with a screw and some glue when i received the vehicle.

If you are just idling and driving around the block without a fan, that's why you are over heating. You're not getting any air flow through the radiator. I have used the parts store nylon/plastic fans with a universal spacer before with decent results. Sorry, maybe I misunderstood the post, but it seems like you are not running a fan...?

I don't care if yours works. The question was to find out if you had the upgraded cooling system. Is there any fan on the car? Electric or mechanical?

Can someone please recommend where i can find a clutch and fan for cheap? vicious or not

Can someone please recommend where i can find a clutch and fan for cheap? vicious or not You know, I was trying to be helpful. I wanted to clarify that there was no fan at all. Perhaps you meant no electric fan. No fan at all is suicide for an engine on the street. I have a nice factory clutch fan in my garage. It's a 21" 7 blade unit for a heavy duty cooling application. I was going to offer to send it to you free. Now that you've gotten snippy, it's going to stay where it sits. I've seen you ask for help and get snippy before. This time I was going to give you the benefit of the doubt. I guess I see what that got me. More like what it didn't get you. Try having a little patience.

What do you mean by cheap? Ya get what you pay for. 2010 Black Challenger SE <> 3.5 V6 Custom Shift Knobs www.flameball.com Check It Out
