Anyone know of a very narrow electric fan set up for a fox body ??
I've tried both a black magic and a summit brand and they both wouldn't fit due to my supercharger crank pulley.

Tried a stock replacement fan clutch from autozone and it sounds like a freakin' helicopter, annoying as hell.

I'm in the same boat, looks like you'll be buying one of the slimline fans too. I have a fairly small radiator, so It's been a pain finding something for me.

What about a pusher fan in front of the radiator.

Im looking for a fan from a Contour. I guess from what I hear its fairly slim dual fan. I only have 2.25" of clearance... Check out this site and go to post 130. It shows a picture of the Contour fan.

Scott, do this. Brandon has one for his 95 already and I'll be running the same fan. Has to be from a DOHC V6 car for the dual fans. Moves some serious air, is slim and doesn't take the power to run it like the Mark VIII does.

I think he goes on to say that the Mark VIII flows 4500 cfm and the Contour is around 3800 CFM. Im going with the Contour fan as well. Just looks like a pretty clean setup compared to having 1 fan mounted on each side.

I just think that having a fan on the front of the radiator really takes up some valuable cooling space that you could be using by having the fan on the radiator side.

Yeah true. Thats why Im looking into the Contour fan. Plus I want the tranny cooler on the front side and will be using a fan for it as well so space is some what limited. And a puller seems to be more efficient.

a 95-ish V8 camaro has a nice dual fan set up in it too. Might work, it's kinda slim
