1978 Mustang Keeping It Cool: Clutch Or Electric Fan?

BullRider · 06-30-2007

As of right now, i have no fan for my 1978 coupe, with a 351, i would like to know which would be better, a clutch fan, or electric, and possibly which product to get.

Electric is the way to go...i wired mine to a switch in the car so i can turn it on any time...

Thank you so much for reposting, i have lost alot of sleep over this car lately. Im just now getting it running again, i did a transmission switch. Could you tell me one that would keep it cool, and still fit with the 351, i dont have much room.

My vote is the clutch fan. You lose maybe 10HP but gain superior cooling.

I WISH that there was room for one in my Ranger!
