Recommendation: Electric Fans

[403Olds]

I'll second the vote on using factory fans. Mine are off an 88 Firebird, but the same fan was used on the 90's B-Body, Saturn's etc. In general, the factory fan's pull more air than the aftermarket fan's, as many of them are over rated. Look at the amp draw on the fan motor for an accurate comparison.

I also went with the CS130 alternator. again, a factory rated higher amp alternator, that eliminates the aftermarket hype of capacity.

dixie restoration depot and mike's Monte's are a good source for g body specific parts such as that top plate and they have good customer service to back it up.ask anyone around here they treated people well.

If I remember, the SPAL dual relay kit also included two oval connectors that were a perfect fit for the 2000 Camaro fan setup. To prevent an unexpected road failure of a fan motor, I replaced both efan motors before installation. One other factor to consider using stock parts is being able to find replacement motors; I found replacements online--again can't remember source.

As for the radiator top plate, those are also readily available from a variety of vendors in whatever finish fits your fancy.

i ended up picking this up from ebay:
will the tabs bolt on to where the bottom shroud bolts currently are ?

i figure the hold down plate i was talking about in a previous post to support the top?

haven’t torn it down yet

Check the dimensions and confirm lotta that stuff is generic and doesn't fit exactly like you'd expect, especially with the description that doesn't make sense. Contact the seller

looking at this kit , looks like the temp switch will be wired to the relay.

would i have to tap factory cable too so i can see the temp in dash?
