IMO on older cars going from a power robbing fan to an electric is one of the best things that you can do. Warms up a bit faster, cools better in traffic, frees up more power that was being wasted by that stock fan, and uses less fuel overall.
Stepside1986 I had two electric fans on mine.....it overheated and drained my battery 80 watts each they pulled. I went back to a flex fan...I could careless about 20hp loss. My car is around 500hp big deal I hated electric
Michel Linschoten I tried it too but just one fan and I had the same problems with the stock parts but I’m willing to try it again but with my Dodge Charger and a more powerful 320A alternator / upgraded power supply
It gives you more power because when you rev the engine to high RPM it can spin easier. Therefore, less force going in the opposite direction of the force of the rotating assembly. Its lighter without the fan too. You need a fan when your not moving like in traffic so why run a mechanical fan all the time when your moving all the time and the wind is naturally cooling the radiator. You also don't have to worry about getting stuff caught in the fan when your working on an engine at idle. You also get more room in the engine compartment because the mechanical fan is not in the way anymore. It also make your engine sound different because you don't have the constant loud sound of turbulence from the mechanical fan. I have dual electric fans on my 72 gmc truck with 350. I took the electric fans off of some newer dodge van for free and built some brackets and then got a controller for $30 on summit. And it has been working for like three years. It's easy to install there are like two wires, positive and negative.
This is why there are clutch fans. This fan install just misses the air OUTSIDE the fan frame, but inside the shroud . I am happy the original fan shroud was used. 20-30 amps is a drain on the alterntor which sucks horsepower as well. This amount can be equal to any gains. IT was Not done on 3/4 ton trucks for a long long time later. The only reason GM went to Electric fans was space. They were a big warranty headache with hotter engine temps being required for emissions as transmissions burned up when over 200 degrees
I have a '79 Z28 I am going to do this someday, but for now I need to put one on a 4x4 truck. I do a lot of slow driving over rough terrain and the AC stops working and the engine overheats with the stock fan. I never liked the idea of zip tying the fan directly to the radiator for fear of springing a leak in the boonies. Making my own brackets like you did is the way to go.Thanks for the video.
I think it would be better if the gaps on the sides of the fan were covered up to the shroud itself. I think that would significantly improve the efficiency of the cooling.
The only problem that is not discussed in any of these TH-cam videos is that your factory fan clutch ties into your vehicles PCM, at least it does for the Chevrolet/GM line. So, when you do the Delete/Replacement/Swapout to an electric fan setup, your vehicle will report back to your PCM as a failure or Check Engine light event, making it impossible to pass a state inspection in the future.
Properly working clutch fan doesnt draw much HP at speed, electric fans put a load on the alternator and turn on at a certain temp and run until the temp drops unless you put in a switch. So unless they are off at speed you wont really see any HP gain.
Screw 195 turn on with a 170 off point. That's 25deg difference the fan will be running like crazy and ping off the line . A cheap capillary switch with the probe in the upper hose or pushed through the rad core will be way better. Mine is set to come on at 175 and it turns off at 170.
What about the gap between the edge of the electric fan shroud and the original shroud? Seems like air is just going to slip through that gap. Why not shield or close that gap with some heat-resistant rubber or other material? I like your custom bracket technique.
nice por la van nice klowny I gotta do that to my lady's 64 ss been sitting garaged for month's now but I tuned it up it's og carnal but it over heat's I hope this method of yours will do the trick!!!! thank you carnal for sharing...
10/23/16 thanks for the help I just installed a electric fan using the same shroud for my 1979 Camaro z28. I'll probably install the relays this week or weekend.
Dude you are a National treasure, your videos have save my ass so many times with my car (profile pic). So shine on you crazy diamond n keep the videos coming
Damn! That is a nice install! Makes me want to buy another Camaro. My 88 IROC had dual fans. I think I like the 84 Z28 Style more now. One thing though, you forgot to use your special Klown Lube when you drilled the holes in the flat stock.

You do this today Manny? The weather we've been having has been great for some outdoor wrenching! I hope it never snows and stays 60 degrees all winter long! Great video, electric fans free up HP for sure. -Jack
Did the conversion on my 1992 MB W124 but with a 2-speed fan to keep coolant temp as stable non fluctuating as possible and to have less noise and power drain on the only 115A alternator, and there was already an auxiliary pusher fan for the AC. What is the alternator's rating? Some claim not even 150A was enough for a good electric fan conversion.
@@klowny1969 I was wondering if you used the stock or replaced it with one of higher output since the conversion involves extra electricity needs to the system. I'm under the impression the stock alternator is just a little better enough for the stock car specs that did not utilize an electric engine fan. My stock was 90A actually.
I don't know too terribly much about cars, but I'm very interested in learning more. Am I correct in my assessment that all this really does is take away a relatively small amount of rotating mass, leading to a bit better throttle response? Could you eliminate that pulley altogether removing even more rotating mass with a different length serpentine belt, or at the least, replace that pulley with a lighter aluminum one to add to the effect similar to kits I've seen that use differently sized pulleys on like the AC compressor to reduce parasitic drain. Just curious, I just found your channel tonight and subscribed, you seem to be very in depth and I'm always interested in learning new things.
this particular engine, u cannot get rid of the pulley because it runs the water pump..unless u put in an electric water pump..lighter pulley wont do much..an underdrive pulley will give u a little more power..but then ur charging and cooling can suffer a bit
And do you think a new aluminum radiator is worth them money versus a new OEM radiator? I'm looking at a 3 row mishimoto radiator, but I don't know if the stock shroud will fit.
Mark Hodge if ur planning on putting more power into the car or the car runs a little hot. .then i would go with aluminum..i dont remember how big that thirdgen fan is..but its a beast for a second gen
Do you have any videos on the dual fan setup for a 3rd gen, I have a 85 camaro that came without electric fans, I bought the dual fans from an 87 or 88 off eBay but I'm confused how to hook the harness up because theirs nothing to plug into on my car that would power them
My fan came with nylon straps to put through the radiator cooling fins but I like the shroud idea. So, you can tap off the choke wire? How convienient. Got it to do tomorrow.
The yellow wire off the relay to the thermostat switch then from the switch to the choke wire. Switched 12v from the ignition switch. Using a "Derale" relay and harness kit.
So I did it today and got it done before dark. So, it does work but it heats up to 200 before the fan kicks on and off keeping the temp at 200. Either my temp gauge is off or the sender or coolant probe is faulty. Luckily I saved the fan and shroud. Gonna drive it a few days. It's so stinking cold now with the heater going all the time I don't think it will be a problem until summer. All I think i'll hafta do is get a better fan assemby with some kind of a shroud. I think i'll put in a manual ovveride switch so I can turn the thing on when I want.
so the pully for the old fan stays in the belt? does anyone take the pully out or is it just the weight of the fan itself your taking out of the picture?
Monse Bishop it can be two or one..if its one, the one wire gets grounded by the switch..if its two its usually because it acts like a switch between the two wires
@@Watchout1010 depends on what mechanical fan you have but Engine Masters did dyno testing on this on a 500hp engine and showed a loss of about 3hp from the alt draw but a gain of between about 10-30hp depending on the fan. 30hp gain from ditching the stock clutchless 7 blade fan like on a 60's or 70's car.

I believe you arent supposed to put thread locker on thermostatic switches as it insulates the brass and makes it read incorrect. also pipe threads are supposed to be watertight without Teflon (right?)
I don't think the threads of the plug are the only location of heat transfer. I think the bottom of the plug is conducting heat between the coolant and the plug. I don't think pipe threads are always water tight because sometimes on pipe you use pipe dope to seal them, but I cant remember if that is gas or water.

I don't think the threads of the plug are the only location of heat transfer. I think the bottom of the plug is conducting heat between the coolant and the plug. I don't think pipe threads are always water tight because sometimes on pipe you use pipe dope to seal them, but I cant remember if that is gas or water.
Is there after market wireing too stop the ignition switch cooking
