Need pictures of electric radiator fans - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey there folks, I am trying to find pictures of successful radiator fan installations on our trucks.

I have been looking at putting electric radiator fans in front of my rad to increase cooloing in traffic, cruises, etc.

Has anyone got pictures of tips of what works best, or what to avoid or watch out for?

Much thanks

Not in front of the radiator, but here are my 'puller' fans. A pair of 11" ones. Got the pair on E-bay for $70 I think....$35 each.

Nice install. I have seen kits for additional fan capacity, but wondered how they attach them . I am happy with my stock fan setup, but want to add a set of 11" pusher fans to the front for cruises, long periods of idle.

From what I understand the late model Camaro/Firebird LS1 dual fan set-up works well. I actually picked one up off Ebay for like $50 but havent got got around to putting it in yet.
