Default Recommended Radiator Fan

Need a slim radiator fan for 92-95 civic fluidyne radiator (12psi on JDM B18C and 100+ heat)

Did a search and no real suggestions so am thinking of either a universal without a shroud or FAL - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/FL...n/?prefilter=1

What would you recommend?

Thanks - how is the mounting kit for that? I see they come with the mounting feet http://www.the-fan-man.com/shop/moun...0017-p-96.html

do those install on the factory bosses or with zip ties things?

Do you have any installed pics?

The zirgo shrouds seem to be more for protection than actual air flow funneling - do most people use the zip tie mounts?

What is the max size fan for an OEM size radiator (92-05 civic)? Like 14"?

friend of mine has a half mishimoto radiator with a 14" on it, so it'll probably fit. as far as i know, the zip tie mount is the perfered method to mounting the fan

Mishimotos radiator fans are the same quality of ebay no name brand. they just throw a decal on them and jack up the price and their garbage! Do ask me how i know this..

But i went here and got the last fan ill ever need to buy.
