LS1 fans They fit perfectly. Lots of folks use Lincoln Mk8 fans too, they fit pretty nice.

Taurus fan from the correct motor (think it's the 3.8L) or the SN95 fan fits better than the MkVIII and works as well.

I have one on both cars.

Stupid Black Magic. It barely clears my 8 rib setup. Taurus, Mark VIII are all good.

I run a flex fan, for all you ppl who say they KILL power, I did a interesting test, I routed the fan belt where it only touched the crank at a VERY VERY SHALLOW angle, less than 10* to be sure. Only after 5,000 rpm did the belt begin to squeel...I really dont think it was losing that much power to the flex.

if you are willing to spend a little more change on it, than i would highly recommend the DCC 3081 fan. It has the DCC controller build into it, and flows insane amounts of air. A key to a good electric fan though is not only how much air they flow, but how well they shround the radiator to get proper airflow through the radiator
