Which Fan?

I have a '91 Bird 5.0, auto with a/c. I want to put an electric fan on it. Will another year Tbird or Cougar fan/shroud combo work? The car is all stock.

Should I be looking at Summit Racing or some type after market place?

Thanks for any help.

Most people upgrade to the 1998 Mrk8 fan, but it does require a better alternator. I used a 3G alt intended for the 94/95 mustang GT, which requires a special bracket to adapt to the t-bird alternator brackets. The larger alternator also requires an additional power wire and fuse. Then you need a fan control system with a 75 amp relay.

TCCoA.com has several post showing how to install the Mrk8 fan.

Fan control

Thanks for the reply, where do I get the fan control and how do I wire it up with the relay? I did look over at the TCCoA, found some info, but nothing with a relay.

Thanks

Thanks David

I'll look up lonnie.

I'll second that move, I am already running his alternator setup on my 91 5.0.
Will be getting his fan setup soon too.....
Lonnie Doll is the single most knowlegable guy when it comes to our cars (LX's at least).

Definitely look at getting a Mark VIII fan or one out of a Sable/Taurus 3.8L. The valve cover will have a very clear 3.8L engraving in silver. It blows a buttload of air.
