How's my Fan depth

2 Attachment(s)

Please take a look and tell me if this is acceptable or not. When using a 1/2" spacer, the fan blades are just over half way in the shroud. When using a 1" spacer, the fan blades are pretty much all the way in the shroud. I have not been able to source a 3/4" spacer, which I think woud put me in the sweet spot. Either way I have even spacing between fan blades and opening of shroud.

looks great to me, blade spacing to the shroud edge is great and its both inside and outside the shroud like it should be.

Yup, looks about perfect. I’ve been told the blades should be 1/2-3/4 IN the shroud. Yours looks perfect.

Re: How's my Fan depth

Matches OEM setups and matches what engineers want to see for depth. Looks good.
