Is the new fan thicker then the old? Im going to be running the fbm radiator and stage 2. I dont think theirs any issue if the fan isnt as thick.

Its the shroud that adds some thickness. If you're surface mounting the SPALs you should be ok, but might be tight.

The supplied generic fans are actually a bit thicker because the motor section sticks out in the center a bit. When we took our generic fans out, the center section where the wires enter the fan was melted, probably why they quit working.

I'm in for this. Jetcar's always seem to hold my interest for some reason. Spin those tires to 88mph, hit boost, light the tires on fire and go back to the future...
