I have a '66 Malibu with a stock 283 w/4bbl and no a/c. I am interested in putting an electric fan (possibly a pusher) on but not sure what size to buy (or brand) or CFM. I thought about putting electric pullers on but not sure. My car runs about 190 on the highway in the summer (Florida) and creeps up to 220 plus in traffic or after I stop....need to keep it cooler. So, any advice would be great. I've read some threads about electric fans but not many on pusher type. Thanks in advance.

Pushers block air when not being used and 10% less effective then pullers .
go with 2 - 11 or 12 inch pullers lose the mechanical fan .
my web sit has some examples on the chevelle page near the bottom for ideas .

Thank you. Another option I might have is to use a Mark VIII fan. Any ideas on this?
