I would like to go to a pusher electric fan on my radiator. I saw listing on Summit from $90 to 300 plus. Some totaly out of site. What is a good fan at a good price. I already know that I will have to use a spacer to move the radiator toward the engine and for the most part have already figured out what i ned to do.
 
Buy yours off of a reputable seller on ebay - I have seen them go for 40-100 bucks. I'm tired of all these places charging so much for them. I've talked to like 20 people who have bought them off of ebay, and they all work great - no problems
 
I used a thermostat the fits into the housing from a 250. One of these "electric fan thermostat sending units" from Summit:

That and an electical fan relay switch hooked up to the battery terminal off the starter relay. I went with the one that turns on at 185* and off at 170*, which is all you need with a single electric fan. If you want it powered off the ignition switch, connect the wire to ignition post on the starter relay.

Since I went with two small fans, one is wired directly to battery and one wired to the ignition switch, so they both come on when to car gets hot and one stays on until the car cools even after I turn off the car.
 
I bought the same switch at AutoZone for $5 this past weekend. I can't believe Summit is asking over $20!

Now I have to firgure out how to wire it from the existing wires I have off the old adjustable switch. I think I ground one to the chassis and the other to the new switch.
