has anyone used an electric fan with success? I have heard they not cool well enough. Its a 460 in an rv towing a 3000lb car in Florida. Thoughts?
87 460
For 460 swaps into mustangs where it is usually not able to use the engine fan the electric fan of choice is one off the lincoln mkVIII. But it needs a high output altenator to run it.
The stock mechanical fan should be alot more powerful than an electric one. An electric fan will have a motor that at best produces a fraction of a HP. A fan belt can transmit several HP.
The advantage of a good electric fan over a mechanical fan is at idle and low rpms. With either fan you have to have a full shroud for them to be effective.
