[Healeys] Fan Clutch for Big Healeys

[Simon Lachlan]

This clutch…? Is that something that attaches to the existing fan? Probably had one on my last tintops but never thought about them. Anyhow, I was wondering if a so-called “viscous fan” would be better. I recall having one on a European Ford Granada, years ago. Wasn’t thick at all….I know there’s little room in there! Trick is to find one with right bolt holes…

I didn't see one. Moss has them for various Jags, Triumphs, MGs, etc. I was just wondering if someone managed to fit one to a Healey. Not sure if it would help hot running or not.

Bob, 

 

Is there a fan clutch available that will fit an Austin Healey? There is very little space between the water pump and the radiator.
