'69 chevy c-10 blower fan
 
Pulled the fan/cage out. The motor spins fine,,,,no sound,,,need to replace the cage. Question is,,,if I buy, say one from LMC, will the rpms be faster? Or should I just buy the cage from them ($17) and use the original fan motor. Actually I would like to have more rpms from the motor = more air flow. Thanks ,,,Bill

I am interested in the answer to this question as well. I noticed my fan motor blows quite slow compated to newer vehicles.

Hey Juddess,,,,,I found afew new ones that they say will fit,,,,but the cage is 4" instead 3",,,,haven't found what the rpms of the orig. motor is,,,that might help fine a faster one.,,,

It seems like a 4 inch cage if it will fit will move more air. Is that the diameter of the cage or the depth of the cage. Post a link if its allowed.

Ok,,,,mine is 5 1/2 across and 3" deep,,,,,I measured the amount of room in the case,,,can't get a 4" one in there,,,either faster rpms,,,,or,,,,,wider or possibly more slant to the blades,,would definitely move more air,,,,

maybe your motor's old & tired. they're only about $20 at Oreilly. Saw new AC Delco motor and fan for $40 online... search A/C blower motor 1969 C10.

I've checked some of the posts for fan motors/baskets. Most are for units with AC and have a 4" cage. 3" is what came out of it,,,
