Thinking of getting one of these. Think my 26 year old fan is getting a bit tired.

Anyone had experience using one of these or know if one has been used on a cordia radiator before?

I put 2 12 inch fans on Bitza......used ultra slim Davies.......got them cheap off Ebay.......here are some pics:

I needed to mount them upstream as I didn't have room in the engine bay.......it's just a matter of turning the fan over and reversing the polarity. :D

Ive just fitted a Spal in my evo 2 , I havent tried it out yet , but its got other aids to help like the 71dec Ralliart thermostat, alloy Radiator and a Ralliart 1.3 bar radiator cap

I had a 14" Davies Craig unit like Andrews one in my last Cordia , and it was perfect

Bitza it looks like you mounted yours through the radiator. Did they cause much vibration?

S1VART let us know what you think once you've seen the Spal in action, compared to the Davies Craig.
