Imperial cooling fans. these things are garbage. dont waste your money! I need an awesome slim fan for my setup? I was looking on inlinefour and mishimoto. what do i need to look for to get an awesome really strong one? its gotta be a slim fan.

h22 swap eh6
triple core rad
honda coolant
oem thermostat
garbage ass fan

car still runs a lil hot during warmer days. its running good since its cold now but i wanna solve this before it starts getting warm again.

im not sure man. i do know its alot. when me and my buddie tested it we laid it on the ground and hooked it to a battery well my buddie was standing over it holding it and it blew his hat off. if you know anyone that works in ur local autozone ask him if you can test it and idk if they will let you but those are some strong fans

Do you know if the Ford Taurus fan will be slim enough? ALOT of people run the 3.8L Taurus fans in their cars. I have one in mine, keeps it at 180 even in traffic. Also if I'm correct they are 2200 - 2300 CFM and you can pick them up at pull-a-part for about $15 iirc. I can measure how thick mine is (no homo) when I get to the house after work. Here's a link to how mine turned out, of course the radiator setup in my car is different than yours but you get the idea.

Yep he means the fan would be mountd on the front of the Radiator instead of on the back side. You get more room that way but the peformance of the fan is less. They always work more efficiently as a "puller".

I did this with my H and a Mishimoto w/slim fan. Never had a problem:cheers:
