    Mech fan, cheap, plentiful and when equipped with a clutch, effective. Elect fan, can be expensive if you go over the top with Daimler fans and custom shrouds and stuff. Some electrical system knowledge required. But when its done works excellent, plus you'll get back the h.p. that the...

    hey y'all. some time ago I started a thread on an 26" aluminum rad and 7 blade fan w. clutch (thanks ed72demon!) that I was putting in my 72 Duster.
