if the fan is anything compared to my 4 cyl fan on my 92 then it won't work it's to thick and will have clearance issues.....people on here are a fan of the ford tauras elec fan upgrade for cheap

Yep Mark VIII or at least a V8 T-bird or Cougar The Mark VIII fan is two speed and will draw close to 100amps on start-up so make sure to use large enough wiring and relays.

Hmmmm, the 4 cyl fan fit fine with my 351w in there.
