Default Radiator Fans?

Ok here's the thing, I bought a oversized radiator for my 97 DC on E Bay. So in order for the radiator right side fan to fit past my 4-1 headers i had to "Modify" the right fan(Bending, cutting, Breaking). im pritty sure its broken. should i just leave it out like in a civic that uses only one fan or replace them with FAL fans that are like 300 beans? Thanx for the 411

Or you can buy one of my leftover fans from a Factory Five Cobra build. Opposite blades are broken off (balanced) on both (airflow experiments). They all work. $5 and shipping. My project's built. (I broke 4 blades on the fan in my car, btw).

Please PM me pics and details of this if you have any... I love factory five stuff.


As far as the OP, I'd run w/one fan.. You should be just fine.

I would run 2 fans, slim line if need be. Civic have only a half-width radiator and half-width A/C condenser. So if they take out A/C it's fine to just have the one fan for the radiator.

Integras have both a full-width radiator and a full-width A/C condenser, so you need both fans.

I would replace them. A civic fan can be efficient on a civic rad. because the radiator is half the size of an integra rad.
