Cooling Fan Problem? Need Suggestions..

I have an 87 Gt with the stock cooling system. There seems to be a problem with the fan to fan shroud alignment. The fan rubs on the bottom of the shroud when the engine is running and it has a grove worn into the blades which caused it to crack between them. I think it could be a problem with the engine mounts. Any Ideas?

I like your thinking. Bad motor mounts cause just what you describe.

If you replace them, I'd also do the trans mount and crossmember bushings. For motor mounts, I'd get the captured vert-style mounts (which were standard by late in the aero fox model run because they are superior).

If you get a new fan blade, I got a FAL metal replacement (instead of plastic) which I really like (I live in the desert). For the money (40 bucks or so), you'd be well on your way to an E-fan/controller if you already have a 3G.

Good luck.
