Default proform/blackmagic electric fan

i am lookiing into getting one of these buy have a question about the install. i am guess that you take the old fan out and the old fan shroud out. the problem that i see is that my radiator overflow attaches to the fan shroud. do this kits come with something to attach the coolant overflow to the radiator?

+1, My black magic extreme came with pieces to mount the overflow. I'm assuming that the one that looks like the proform one would have the same thing.

http://www.strippermotorsports.com/ is the place to order the Black Magic Extreme from, they've got it for 285 dollars. That's where I got mine from. Anyways, make sure that you get fan kit flx-185 and not flx-180.

With a statement like that it's hard not to??? It's pretty easy for me not to. Go out and buy the Proform or Black Tragic. No one's stopping you.

But for everyone else, the don't cool and they have a high rate of failure. There are endless threads on the subject.
