Default Blew by Black Magic

I know its been asked a thousnad times but im going to switch my fan to electric before winter is over. I know i need a new alternator which im going to get. Ill probly end up with a 130a one that bolts right on. But how hard is it to actually disconnect the fan from the engine? The fan im gonna get is by black magic but im gonna look around for a cheaper one. Ive had the undrive pullies for a while so im gonna throw those on while im at it. Also will the 130a be enough or should i bump it up to 200a for s***s and giggles?

Proform electric fan off jegs............ $125 has a thermostat does 2800cfm. i bought the flex-a-lite fan for $200 when that proform is the same ****in fan just $75 cheaper its very nice to have you can set it to keep running even after your car has been shut off until it cools to a certain temp. screw black magic its a good fan but not worth the money in my opinion

I have pulleys, a 130 amp Powermaster alt, a fluidyne rad and the Black Magic Xtreme, which I'm all happy with. It's not inexpensive though and work well together.

It's real straight forward disconnecting the existing fan/shroud and the instructions are easy to follow.

yes ebay fans work fine... i was gonna get some myself

my setup is gonna be 2 10" fans side by side except one higher than the other due to the inlet pipes and stuff on the radiator. also i'm gonna make them pushers to clean up room in the engine bay

when you get ebay fans most of the time you'll have to buy a relay from autozone tho.... like 10 bucks
