aftermarket radiator fans?

[Gre8one7]

Well i now have a procharged marauder and the stock fans are big and bulky. Anyone know of a skinnier and maybe more powerful fan that would work?

You're suppose to turn over the stock electric fan shroud upside down when installing a Procharger blower. You shoud have plenty of room if you did this. Have you done that?

The stock fan is more than adequate to cool your new set up. It is more than plenty adequate for my set up with 90* ambient air idling in traffic, my ECT is between 186-192*. And the one nice thing on the stock fan blade design is how quiet they are. I have run many different aftermarket fans in the past and all of them were annoying loud including my current heat exchanger fans on my set up.

A Mark VIII fan is thinner and more powerful, but won't cover the radiator as well. It also uses a two speed motor rather than the external PWM module on your stock '03-'05 fan (You may be able to use the PWM module from your old fan assembly on the HIGH input to the mark fan (or any other fan for that matter), but I don't know if the higher current draw will cause any issues)
The 3.8 Taurus/Conti fan is even smaller but flows less than Mark VIII fan. It uses the same motor and fan blade design but 16" vs 18"

The '98-'02 Continentals have a nice high-flowing dual electric fan assembly that is also lower profile compared to the panther fan assembly. These may be a better fit for the '03-'05 panther radiator.



None of the low-profile aftermarket fans from Flex-a-lite or Spal flow near as much CFM as the stock '03-'05 panther fan, and it would be dumb to sacrifice cooling efficiency for space!

A fan shroud from any 99-04 V8 Stang will work. You will need to make the brackets to mount it though. Curious where you scored the new Marauder?

Are you have any clearance issues? My stock fan (flipped upside) works fine with my FIT kit.

What FIT kit # do you have?

Congrats.

You should post in this thread so the roll call can be updated.
