Flex-a-lite fan - yes? No? Maybe?

Well, since I am going to dress up the engine bay a bit on my 75 F250, I figured a nice shiny fan would be needed for my 460.

This is the one I have my eye on - any recommendations on this product?

Thanks.

I have one and while it does look nice a good electric fan would actually be beneficial to your pocketbook.

While it does look good it does nothing for mpg's. So unless your a 4x4 who see's alot of time mudding I would skip it, and go electric.

Or atleast add a fan clutch to your existing fan, and give it a good paint job. They are almost as good, and work with off-roading alot better.
