Orgasmic Farmer Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Hmmm just been out in the rain to measure mine. Won't help much i'm afraid. I have a saab 900 fan (one of a pair). It is 12 inck dia blades and is a max 10cm from the matrix as I have it mounted to rear of motor. M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Hiatt Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 I used to run 16" Pacets. The blades are too flexible IMHO and are prone to eating radiators. One fan they sent me was actualy proud of the cowling on the rad side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjojjas Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 one of the ford mondeo ones is about 2" thick IIR. Theres two or three types I think so you need to look for the flattest one! Jas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
