Default electric fan?

anybody know if this could be a possible alternative to the black magic electric fan setup and the taurus fan and if so how hard would it be to install on a mustang. LINK

try a proform 15 inch one specifically for the mustang costs 125.00 and draws 2700 cfm per minute which is the most important thing to know when buying a fan is how much air will it draw

The proform is the worst of all of them! There's a member on here that had one grenade on him. I've got the black magic xtreme which is a more superior set up than the taurus or the black magic. It pulls 3300 cfm and keeps my supercharged motor cool in 100+ degree days.

Proform worst of them all ehhhh??? hmmmmm I suppose your entitled to your own opinion??? BUT just because one persons fan blew up doesn't mean you can draw a conclucion for the whole based on that. I run one on a 400+ hp 302 and 3 years strong and doesn't overheat.

i KNOW YOUR RIGHT BUT EVERYTHING HAS IT'S LIMIT. diffrent subject line but same principle I've seen dart blocks blow up stock block blow r-302 blocks blow and even boss 302 blocks blow no matter what it is I have to laugh and you'll have to agree no matter what you buy and post on the forums here it seems everyone trashes what you got in some way or another. I t just seems that nothing is ever good enough for anyone on this forum..... lol lol. just seems when you get more than one person in a room or on a subject you never have a majority agreement ha ha ha lol lol p.s I also have a bunch of people I know whose auburn differentials posi stopped working after a small amount of burn outs does that mean they're worthless too and the worst of all to buy also???[&:]
