Default What kind of fans to use w/ aftermarket radiator like Fluidyne...

Well it turns out my radiator has a hairline crack in it so thats why i've been running pretty hot lately....a little under half way. So I've decided to get a fluidyne (or any other aftermarket radiator...any recommendations) but I know you can't use the stock fans with it so you gotta get some fans to put on the other side so they push air instead of pull. What kinda fans do you guys recommend and can I still keep my AC with these fans?

I dont know do a search on the net, they are an OEM and aftermarket maker of fans, everyone I know uses one on their domestics and imports, they draw less current, easy to fit into any application, and flow more CFM. my 12" slimline cost me 99.00 CAD, thats like 3.45 USD. Check pep boys, this is not a hi Perf item and is avialble everywhere. I really like the FAL, but they know that they are ripping off the import market - same fans for domestics costs half as much from FAL - what gives???

stock fans will work unless you are turbo.. FYI i have a fluidyne that I bought about 3 months ago when my radiator cracked too.. I didnt want to wait out the 5 week back order so I bought a stock radiator and now I need money and I cant take the fluidyne back since its been so long since I bought it.. Im just trying to get it out of my hands.. Ill sell it for 350 shipped, i bought it from MVP motorsports and I still have the invoice and warranty.. The cheapest you will probably find a brand new fluidyne for on the net is about 375, i know cause I looked but if you get it that cheap you will have to wait out the back order most likely.. Im just trying to get some of the money back from mine so if you are looking for one this is a good deal.. it wouldnt hurt to help out a poor honda-tech member either..
