Electric cooling fans on a street/strip car

How many of you are still running the original fan?
Original fan and an electric fan?
Just an electric fan?




On the demon I will not be able to use a clutch drive fan, but use an mechanical fan. We are thinking of just using an electric 16" fan.

Your thoughts on this? The car will be a street strip car.

Light weight flex fan. Good street / drag compromise.

I run the dual Spal 11" fans, I like them

HHR fan here............perfect fit and cools here in the hot desert...........

On my Demon I run a 4 core radiator and a clutch fan. Used a fan clutch off a 90 jaguar xj6. Hayden clutch number from summit HDA-2765.

Only way I roll...street or strip. Just went 10.84 with it Friday....

Dual 11" fans fully shrouded on my street/strip hooptie... keeps it cool in stop and go driving with the AC on high during 120° days. My mechanical clutch fan is sitting under a bench. Not quite sure why I haven't "recycled" it.

I put the HHR fan on the Rampage... the bit of running
I have on it it stays nice and cool... I run a 180
stat and it only goes as high as 190

MP viscous fan with a shroud here, my 408 rarely runs over 175*.

Original 4 blade fan ...

Runs at a "cool" 205-210 in 100+ weather...

HHR fan for the win!

Run a viscous clutch with a shroud and a 15" pusher just in case. Running a small Howe alum. radiator (ordered total width when I thought it was core width...oops)

Cruising it sits happily at 180 with the elec. unit off. Only after sitting in bumper to bumper traffic (i.e. Woodward) for 20-30 minutes will it approach 200 with the elec. fan on. With how much I drive, I want to be safe.

Will go with a HHR when I get a new radiator...

dragula,what size and brand are those fans?
