Default Electric Fan

I just got a Powermaster 140 Amp alternator installed and wanted to do an electric fan next.

I just wanted to get a sense on what brand/kind you'd all recommend and also see what to expect from an installations standpoint.

Black Majik Xtreme fan is really nice. It's what I got on mine. It moves a ton of air. The installation is really clean and easy, it comes with everything you need. I has a manual switch option that I decided not to use with mine, so if you need that its in the kit. I have it wired up so when it gets to operating temp or a little above it turns on and off automatically. After my brother saw it he was like damn.. I want one of those too. It comes with shroud and all the mounting stuff, even for your stock overflow, so you can just take it off the shroud and stick it on the new shroud.

Never thought of that and it's a good recommendation.

I'd also like to point out the tarus cfm (2000) compared to the BMX (3300)

I like the Black Magic Xtreme and heard good things about it here and elsewhere. I don't think I'll need the manual switch option either and the installations sounds pretty straight forward. Is it complicated to wire so the fan turns of/on automatically or is that an option in the installation instructions?

I think I'll go Black Magic Xtreme for the win.
