I have a Vortech S-Trim with the 6.66" crank pulley and a Be-Cool 2-core radiator and am having issues with cooling while stopped. Due to the lack of clearance, I can't seem to find any electric fan(s) that will fit and provide adequate cooling. I have about 4" of clearance, so the stock fans don't fit, and the 16" flex-a-lite trimline I have in there doesn't cut it.
Any suggestions, or can anyone point me in the right direction?

I'm using a Spal dual 11" setup with some custom mounting brackets on a stock radiator. This setup pulls about 2700-2800 cfm. Works very well.
Spal also now makes a single 16" fan, 3.75 inches thick, 3000 cfm. Using a single 16" fan will allow you to position it for maximum clearance.

Its Spal or nothing as far as I'm concerned. The 16" on my 69 sounds like a F16 but it really gets the job done.

Thanks. Never thought of Spal, but looks like I'm gonna order me one. :)
God, it'd be nice to run the air conditioning again.....

Ha, looking ahead to the summer in Phoenix. I've already cut the radiator core support and pulled the radiator in some, stock fans still won't fit.

You might look at the flexlite 210s. Alot of people run them on S10s where space is also at a premium. :)
