Just realized on a different thread that it's time for me to take my own advise and get a clutch fan for my Maverick. My Maverick is a 72 V-8 formerly A/C equipped car. It has the 7 blade monster flex fan. My question is: Is there an easy swap clutch fan that will fit in the shroud? And where did you get it?
I was shopping around on Autozone and they had fan clutches for the six cylinders as well as V-8's. Got a look at one for my six and it was the same thickness as the stock fan spacer. I'd assume the one for your V-8 would be the same. Save the receipt!
clutch fan I bought one from Checker Auto this Saturday and it didn’t fit so I returned it, they said it was for 74 V-8. I showed them my fan blade but they said they have too many boxes of fans to go through to find a match so please let me know if you find the correct part number.
Got it. I will try to install it tomorrow. Was 105 degrees today so didn't want to spend much time outside
OK. Here they are. Hayden Fan clutch #2710 Hayden flex fan #3618. (The box had 3620 on it but it was crossed out). Got them at Kragen. The fan fits and even clears the shroud on my former AC Maverick. I broke the shroud while removing it but mocked it up and it appears to clear. Now I need another shroud.
