[6pack] Electric fan recommendation wanted

[forzion at maine.rr.com]

Stan;

Try the SPAL fans. I hear they have a pretty shallow profile. I wasn't smart enough to buy one of those at the outset and ended up using a different brand that had to be mounted lower, to allow the fan hub to clear the cross bar. But it works fine!

I'm looking for a recommendation for an electric  fan that will fit a 74 
TR6 
with a standard radiator. I bought a random Hayden 16 inch fan on ebay 
(it was 
cheap) and of course the thing is too bulky to fit between the rad and 
the 
cross bar. I would like the largest fan possible (close to 16 inches ?), 
I 
don't mind making up brackets. I would prefer to attach on or close to 
the 
edge of the rad so bigger is better than smaller, definitely want to 
avoid 
those horrid plastic push through fasteners,  but it needs to be low 
profile 
to fit into that narrow space. 
 
Thanks.. 
 
Stan
