cooling fan help
 

looking for pics of your fan shroud and fan setups. i converted my suburban over to a serp setup off of a 97 chevy truck. the fan blade sits in the shroud to the point where the back of the blades are flush with the shroud. i know everyone says that the fan has to be 1/2 in 1/2 out but i looked at my 2000and 2004 gmc yukons and they sit the same way. any ideas?

Mine was the same way until I swapped over to electric fans.

Actually you cannot really see anything but it was fairly close to flush with the shroud.

Re: cooling fan help
 

did you have any cooling issures with it being that way?

Nothing it ran great for the two years that I had it installed. The reason why I went to electric is that I found it difficult to time the engine with the setup on the front of the motor hiding the timing marks. This is what mine looks like now.

Looks like a Volvo dual fan setup to me. Nice.

It is actually from a Windstar.

Mine is from a Windstar as well. It fits really, really well.

Ah, OK. That larger secondary motor reminds me of the big ole Volvo fans.

My '86 is fully in. Fan clutch is about 1-1/2" from the radiator.
