Well you could just measure the diameter that you have to work with then the depth that you have as well as if you want to use a pusher or puller fan setup. Then call Flexalite or one of the other electric fan companies out there and see what they have to offer that fits those dimensions. Theres still a matter of how much volume you might want to run but thats up to you. I used to have one of the catalogs for them but I loaned it out and never got it back. As usual. Derale also makes fans FYI.

That trans. cooler will work great for your car. I am just curious whay you want to add a fan to it? I have a trans. cooler and as long as i am moveing the temp stays around 180 deg. or so. If I am in stop and go traffic it will bounce around a little from all the stop and going, but will not get above 220 deg. which is a normal temp for your trans. if it did not have a cooler. I also am running Royal Purple trans fluid so even the higher temps would not cause the fluid to break down.

^^^^^ This is very true, but how often and for how long are you power breaking your car? And as far as stop and go traffic, yeah when you are sitting at the red light your temp will rise a little but as soon as you start moveing it goes back down again. As I stated before if you run a good trans fluid (syenthic) the heat will not break it down, and the temps that you are getting to at red lights are temps that any mormal car is at most of the time that does not have a trans cooler. So I would have to assume that you are just adding the fan for extra cooling, which is good, I just did not see the need for it on mine. and if you live anywhere north of me (I am in far south Florida) you should not have any problems with just the cooler working great by itself without the addiation of another fan.

Most people just mount the trans cooler to the radiator in front of the regular fans. The engine fan will cool the trans cooler just fine, this is what I did on my Nova that had a 4500 rpm stall and it never got hot, I doubt yours has a stall that high so you should be just fine.
