Default flex-a-lite fan for an EF with a/c. do they make one? any other manufacturers?

Sup H-T members!!

I was wondering if anyone knows if flex-a-lite makes a fan kit for an EF with a/c.

OR

Does anyone know of a manufacturer that makes a "slim" fan kit for this application?

I'm in the process of swapping out my D16 for a B16 but I want to keep my a/c and clean up some of the clutter in the engine bay. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance to y'all.

I have not seen a kit specifically made for the ed and ef but there have been people who just modify the eg kits to work.

true...it may be a little pricey, but, I'm going for that "clean" look. I like the fact that it's thin and clean looking. I think it would help my already cluttered engine bay...especially in black!!

anyone try using the DC kit on an EF??? Am I gonna have to try it???

Bump for more info.

I work for a Volvo dealership we have a ton of recalled electric fans. just cut off the black box and run it off the two wires to the motor. You have to figure out how to mount it but we are just tossing them so you can get one for free

Dual 12" flexalite fans: $209.88
http://store.summitracing.com/...w=sku

you could make your own brackets to fit it out of aluminium and then wire it in to your stock wiring.

the benefit of these fans over most autoparts retailers fans is that they flow more cfm. the max cfm i found out of any single fan at a local autoparts store was around 900 cfm. Each fan in this kit flows at 1250 cfm.

i am running one of these on my eg radiator and it works great.
