I WOULD GO WITH A MECHANICAL ONE TOO. I DONT KNOW WHY, BUT I WOULD! LOL...

 

HEY! I resemble that remark! I am not a fan (no pun intended) of the electric fans unless you have a race car set-up. The clutch fans work better than the flex fans at highway speeds. The reason for the clutch, is that at highway speeds the fan is not turning using power from the crank, saving you gas mileage and a little bit of horsepower. 70 MPH air coming through your radiator is more than enough to cool the water in the rad. The flex fans still use crank power to turn, but they just flatten out at highway speeds so don't draw air. Get the clutch fan.

 

so i should get a fan with a cluch can it be a flex-a-light fan

 

Sure....Flex-A-Lite is just a name brand. They carry clutch fans and clutches as well.
I couldn't get their link to post here, but just go to their site and see for yourself.

 

what size or material dose it matter
