Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone who is running a MARKVIII fan has put one in a custom fan shroud?

I had one built but the guy who fabricated it unfortunately did not do a great job. The design was good but the craftsmanship was not so great. My car has a lot of polished stuff and chrome under the hood and I want to have a polished shroud but I live in Vegas and I am running aftermarket a/c and need a fan that will cool the car in the heat of the summer with the a/c on.

My plan was to run the Mark VIII fan in a custom shroud but I only have a 100 amp alt and with what the fan draws I am a little afraid I may run into some issues???

Other than a Mark VIII fan what would cool my car in Vegas at 110 degrees with the a/c on?

It's a 9.8:1 383 making close to 400 hp I would guess with a 700r4 Trans in a 1966 Chevelle.

Will a 16 inch Spal get the job done?

At some point it will have a big block in it, maybe a few years but I try to plan a head when I can lol

Any recommendations would be great.

Thanks,

Greg

2800 cfm threw the entire core .. with the 12 rubber door flaps to re leave any back presure at cruise speed .

Don,

Thanks for the info I have seen those but I want to use a custom shroud, and I am running a Zoops Posi Trac surp system so I am a little limited on space.

Do you think a 16 inch spal will cool the car in a shroud or should I stay with the Mark VIII I have?

you can do the same with 2 low pro 12 inch fans to pull more cfm and cover more area of the core .
