383 w/ electric water pump & electric cooling fan - 01/11/14 07:49 PM

Curious if anyone has installed an electric radiator fan and / or electric water pump on a 383. My car is a '71 RR. Interested in opinions, facts, and pics of the installation, finished product and wiring......and is it really worth the headache of going that route vs an aluminum radiator and a flex fan or a clutch fan.

Thanks,

Steve

I run a stainless flex fan on my 550 to 600 HP 440.It runs the stock rad from a 65 C body with shroud.Never any problems.My kids 62 300 413 runs stock recored rad and the same fan no shroud.Both run at 180 to 190 all day no matter how hot it is.Electric pumps are mainly for racing.Most problems Ive heard are people with electric fans.Rocky
