Any pics of it? Does it look the same as the 94-95 stang? If so get it. If it's free I'll get it anyway. I'm using a fan from a v-6 stang and it works very good.

Get it for now, but a better bet is the fan from the Loncoln Mk VIII, it flows better. Don't forget that you might need to upgrade your alternator to compensate for the extra power draw. I'm doing a 3G alt and MkVIII fan in the next few days. Good luck.

Very minor electrical needed. And you will have to chip away at the alt bracket so the bigger alt can fit but it's very minor. You can go to my page in my sig and go to page 8.
