I had one in the Red Witch with a aluminum 532" and it worked perfect. Never overheated even with the AC on.

Wow!

Thanks for the confirmation and the recommendations.

Is the Correct Part number for the Fan, (Part-RF64)?

Where would you recommend buying these, and is there a specific Part Numbers for the optimum setup?
==================================

Mark VIII Fan
Get a 60 amp.
the best 10 gauge wire
Painless Wiring 190 degree 'on' sensor
DC Controller
===================================

Mark VIII Fan
60-75 amp relay
the DC controller
===================================
Yes, from what I understand it is running about 550 hp + I added a A/C unit not long ago. So I bet this is probably my problem

Thanks for all your input, if you wouldn't mind pointing me in the right direction for acquisition, the correct part numbers and what I might expect to pay for it.

Thanks again,

Best Regards,

Ty O'Neal

Measure from the tip of the water pump to the radiator and post the distance. Depending on what motor mount stands you have and short or long water pump you could have fit issues. Someone that has a setup on a car right now can post how much room you need. I know someone earlier had a problem so we should try to find out now.

Ok, here is the measurement.

From the tip of the water pump pulley (March System) to the back of the Radiator is right at 6 inches.

I look forwa to hearing from you.

Thanks,

Ty

To All:

Anyone else have any information regarding the fit of this fan?

Thanks,

To All:

Does anyone know if the distance of 6 inches between the tip of the water pump to the rear of the radiator would make it possible to install the Mark III Fan?

Also, Where would you recommend buying it and the accessories needed for a correct installation?

What kind of price can I expect to pay for it.

Thanks,

Ty O'Neal

I got mine from dccontrol.com and if i remember correctly the cut down version of the fan was 5 or 5.5 inches deep, I just looked up dccontrols website but it appears you have to email them, they used to have the products on the website. i got the fan and controller from them.
