WOW! I got to say, that's an awsome engine bay, power, looks, everything!

:drool:
I agree!! :nice: Pictures are working now. :D

Might want to look into an S&B air filter to take advantage of that custom air intake tube like this.

And a standard rotation pump, right? Not the reverse rotation that those of us with the serpentine have.....

that's right.. if your putting the belt on top of the WP pulley you need a standard rotation 79-85 pump.

Yeah I had thought about one like that from Anderson Motorsports. I talked to Pro M about it and they assured me this filter will support 600 hp. I tried to get a cfm rating for it and came up empty handed.

Here are a few pictures of my electric fan set up.. I installed an AFCO 31x19x3 two core aluminum radiator along with the 99-2002 Dodge Viper Gen II electric fan part # 04854720AA. I was told that on low speed the fan will do 3000 cfms and pulls about 25 amps and drops to 8 amps once up to speed.. On high speed the fan will do 4000 cfms and pull about 30 amps and drop to 11 amps once up to speed. The fan is ony 4.5" thick and has 17" blades so it's a pretty thin fan when compared to some like the Mark VIII which would be comparable in cfm output. I installed mine with a 75 amp relay and have it wired to come on high at all times bypassing the low speed completely. It is wired into the low speed wire of the factory 94/95 harness and will come on at the time the low speed OEM fan would have and can be controlled via chip. I also wired in a toggle switch for manual operation if needed. The fan can be bought from a Dodge dealer for about $204 or you can buy them from PDI (305) 218-1486 for $150 if anyone is interested.

I like your setup. How many CFM's is it pushing?? That looks really thin which is what I need for clearence for my supercharger. I have 3" or so to work with between my radiator and blower...maybe less. I have a 2 row griffin which killed that. Expensive? Very interested...otherwise I'll have to try the front mount fan job.
 
it's pushing 4000 cfms on high, and it cools like crazy. On my Dart block 418 it can sit and idle all day and never get over 185 before the T stat will open and the needle will drop like a rock. I am trying to get it to come on with the factory wiring, I don't have it wired right and haven't fixed it, but anyways I let the motor idle to about 195-197 degrees and flipped the fan on. Within seconds it was down to 180-185. So far for a 150 bucks, I don't think it can be beat in my opinion. But I also have a 31x19x3 radiator to go with it. I wouldn't think twice about buying it again. :nice:

Uhhh... wire loom is black so you DON'T see it... Blue wire loom man? The car looks tits, but blue wire loop? It's not supposed to be seen. :notnice: But the fan setup does look sweet! :nice:

I had cheap blue wire loom on my car,after about a week it turned purple on top.I like that blue loom,looks alot thicker than the stuff I have.

Take a look at this pic. This is what I mean by thickness. This is 4.5" ???
It's 4.5 thick at the fan motor. Although I had to space it out another 3/16-1/4 inch or so for the blades to clear the radiator. As delivered it's 4.5 at the thickest point including the fan motor. If you have more questions use this post or the other but not both if you would so I don't feel I have to write the same things twice :D

Wire loom is black when and only when the owner wants it to be black :D that is actually the tightly taped factory harness that I didn't want to tear down. there is no place else to put it and I'm fine with it right there in plain view. I don't think it looks too bad

would that fan clear a vortech blower pulley ya think??
On a fox I think it would? :shrug: on my set up I believe the 8 rib vortech is 4.85 at it's total thickness. Which will not clear on mine, I plan on notching out the front support at some point and moving the radiator toward the front of the car when I get ready to put the blower and a 10-12 rib pulley on it. All I can say is it's 4.5-4.75 thick I'd use the 4.75 since I had to shim the motor so the blades cleared the fan, and the motor will pretty much sit right in front of the pulley. Due to all I have done I'm not a good judge as to whether or not it will for sure clear your setup since mine is quite a bit different.. On a 94-95 with a factory fan I think it would no problem, but the Afco is Much thicker which takes up realstate.
