It's a Dodge Viper single fan that's real slim and moves a ton of air.. It not a pusher fan though, so you would have to install it like normal. Supposedly it does 4000 cfms.. I just got my new motor running and with the 31x19x3 afco radiator this thing cools like crazy. I just turn it on and leave it for now until I get the fan settings changed in the chip, but so far it never get's over 185 degrees before the T stat will open up and the needle will drop to 160 ish and do it over again. for 150 bucks, you might want to look into it.

ponyboy19 said: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.
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.Killer50stang said:Take a look at this pic. This is what I mean by thickness. This is 4.5" ???
Dtowncats said:Killer50Stang, thats a hell of a setup! I will be upgrading to a 3g soon and want an electric fan. Now I am thinking about a Viper fan. What mods did you have to do to get it to bolt up? Any pics during the install? Would this be overkill on a stock motor? I will be using a DCC though.
Oh, sorry about that. I was in a hurry while scanning through the page.ponyboy19 said:That's my set up not Killer50Stang's. you can go here for the pics IMO there is no such thing as overkill on the cooling system. Nothing to getting it in there.. just buy some radiator straps that go through the radiator and mount the fan, and I don't care what some may say about the straps, they work great and I've used them on two fans and a tranny cooler without issue. Rock solid when done. http://www.geocities.com/skiboyracing/viperfan.html
