Exclamation 1/4 times of a stock fan and aftermarket is crazy

well just got backl from the track again and to my dismay i find im still even after the new clutch pack spining 1 tire well i took off my alum fan had 5 fixed blades way lighter then the stock clutch fan to see if that would help my temp it didnt but instead of a 14.4 i ran a best of 14.6 if i ran the **** out of it!!! i shifted at 6k normally 5,500 but it did 14.7 so the stock fan robs .3 on the et even more time with a electric i never would have though that much diff everything was the same gas parts ect only diff was new tranny fluid with a touch of lucas and that stock fan! im ripping that **** off but on the bright side i did beat a 5.7L Gto Auto buy a full sec! man cars piss me off sometimes lol

LOL, cars can be like women. They'll play with you when they're in the mood and have a headache when they're not.

i really don't think the fan made a 3 tenth difference...only if the car was running hotter than usual

sounds like driver and track conditions & weather

just my opinion

Anything's worth a try, if it feels like it makes that big a difference, change it.

You have to remember your previous best was a 14.9? when only one of your wheels was goin for you in the past. I think it has more to do with only one wheel goin for you than anything.

Hmmm, how was the weather maybe the weather was a little bit off? If anything, change it back and see what happens let us know.

OH I was under the impression that you were running an electric fan. Yeah it probably had more to do with the weather than. You'd be surprised at how the weather messes with these cars.

Differant day differant (weather,track condition,times)

I could be way off but wouldnt it take 25-30 or so HP to drop .3 off a 1/4 mi time?? (corrections welcome)
Dropping a stock fan wont net that much, but I belive you when you say you can feel the differance in power
