4 blade fan is what was on the wagon when I got it. That's what I'll run for now.

Re: What Style Of Radiator Fan Do You Use?
I have an original 4 blade fan ( I think) on my "A" that came off a model AA truck and am also running a truck head (original cracked). At the time hoped that the fan might push a little more air.

Re: What Style Of Radiator Fan Do You Use?
So does the two blade style fan really push more air than the 4 blade style? Any facts to this or just a seat of the pants comparison?

Re: What Style Of Radiator Fan Do You Use?
On my '29 truck I use an original prop-style two-blade. I check it each time I have the hood up. On the '30 Roadster, I have and aluminum two-blade because the original had a seperation at the edge. Took it off and it also revealed that death rattle sound of rust inside. For the car I'm working on ... OK, I'm working on all of them! ... I have the original late prop-style two-blade. I also have a couple four blade fans that have been on -- and off -- the Roadster. I suppose those do a fair job of moving air, because you can sure hear 'em whine when you are going down the road.
I'll have to get one more A so I can run a plastic fan, too. That way I will have a Road & Track - type TEST going! |

Re: What Style Of Radiator Fan Do You Use?
I wonder if a poll on fan breakage would be interesting enough to try?
