I am shortly going to have a 12 inch fan off my previous rad setup This was a nice fit on my 306 nissens rad.

I have changed to a different rad now and this is too big. I bought it from CBS last year I believe it was. And it hasn't really done much work as the car has barely moved. When it has been in use, it works perfectly, and brings temperatures down very quickly.

I would take it off as carefully as possible and include the fitting kit, including the push through the rad parts, which could be reused. But just so there is no confusion, the fitting kit is used

To buy it from CBS would be 73 pounds delivered. Anyone want this one for say, 50 delivered?

It was used as a pull fan yes.

It can be used either a push or pull. You can swap it round quite simply, to work either way.

At its widest point, in the very centre, it is 2 and a half inches thick. it then sits another 1/4 of an inch off the rad due to the rubber pads it uses to sit against the radiator fins.

I am not there to measure at the moment. But from looking at it I would say yes.

I personally ran this and a 10 inch on the other side. That was for clearance issues to something tho.

I would say you could either get 2 side by side. Or one front and one back, both 12 inches.

I would be interested in this if you still have it - could it keep up with cooling on stages?

I used it with a 10 inch fan on the other side. I always have 2 fans in case one packs up. I have never had any problems with this cooling the engine though,

Ive just moved to a shorter radiator, so need a 2nd 10 inch fan now as this is too big for my rad.
