Need a replacement fan. Need info
What's the largest fan I can replace my radiator fan with? I'm looking at Perma-cool 14" fans. I know a 12" will fit, I was wondering if anybody's gone with something bigger.
Since my Civic has a B16 in it, with A/C, I have virtually no room on the driver's side in front of the EXM. There's some sort of cooling core in front of my radiator, it looks like part of my A/C, so there's no room on the front driver's side of my radiator either(I was going to put a slimline push fan, no room). My A/C fan is piggybacked to my radiator fan, causing me to overheat when I'm sitting in traffic. Phoenix summers suck ***.
So I figured I could keep this set-up if I replace my stock radiator fan. The Perma-cool 14" is shown on Alamomotorsports.com as a Honda Application. It only draws 9 amps, and is fused to 30A. Plus it pulls 2950 CFM!!
I just need to know if anybody has done this....

I have (2) 10" pusher fans from Ebay. I paid like $65bux for them. One wired to the original harness the other wired to a manual switch on my 90hatch. Works great!

Do you have a B16? If not, you don't have the header clearance issues I'm having...

It fits there? Then the header clearance shouldn't even matter. I need to jack up my car and start looking at what can be bent out of the way.
I'd still like to get a 14" pull fan for my radiator.
Anybody got any info on this???
