Default flex-a-lite fan for 88-91 civics

im looking at purchaseing a consolidated flex-a-lite fan for my 90 honda civic. Which flexalite fans will fit with the stock radiator?

i know they carry the FAL series speicically for sport compact, but i dont see any for our cars, will the 94-00 integra fan fit my car? http://www.flex-a-lite.com/fal/integra.htm

thanks

w/ the b16 swap the greddy 4-2-1 header sits on the a/c fan and doesn't allow it to turn so i had to remove it.

This is why im looking for a slimmer fan, such as the FAL series

If you don't ac in stop and go traffic a lot, ditch the ac fan. I did with my B18 swap. So far the other fan has kept up but my daily drive is all highway. Oh yeah, stock HF radiator to boot.

why not swap in a vtec sol rad with fan? they're offset to the passenger side of the car instead of taking up the whole front. just an idea. keep us posted if you decide to make the teg. fan fit or not.

after measuring a little i think the teg radiator fan will still be a tight fit. my best bet is to probably go w/ the 92-95 civic radiator. ill probably go w/ a fluidyne and a flex-a-lite fan.. that is when i have the spare money

what do you have to do to get the half radiator to fit?
