Thumbs up Just installed Electric fans!

Well,
Since my fan clutch has been locked up for sometime now, it has been killing my gas milage and has been loud as hell. It also has been robbing me of power. I grabbed the taurus 3.8 electric fan from the junkyard for 30$ and also got a thermostatic switch for 20$ to activate them. The fans on low speed cool awesome and are super quiet.
I feel a nice power increase and I think it is the best money I have ever spent. If anyone is looking for some budget electric fans this is a great route. If anyone wants pics let me know.

Someone lead Artic Dragon to this thread... mr. "my car always sounded like that - there's nothing wrong" guy.

Agreed with above - post some pics. Not for me, but for Edgar LOL

Haha, how'd I imagine you'd refer to me in this thread. Post some pics, I'm thinking of picking up some taurus fans to replace my clutch fan.
