I may be able to get some of these cheap, and I keep hearing them mentioned as replacements for engine-driven fans.
Just wondering if anyone can suggest roughly what they are worth so I can see if I can line them up for a bit less.

Thanks for the info. Do you get the temp sensor and cowl for that price as well or is it fans only?
I have been using this wrecker for my dad's falcon and my gf's falcon and he keeps giving me good prices, $20 alternators etc. It's all falcon, fairlane etc stuff.

i spoke to a radiator place about this mod, and they reckon el thermos are the go as they are 60mm longer and fit a GQ radiator better. i got a quote about 1 week ago for 250 fitted all brand new.

I paid $220 for a set of EF twin thermos which I put in my Hilux. Apparently EF is the go as they have a single plug and tuff motors and are far better than the AU ones. I am told they are used successfully on lots of big horsepower burnout cars.
