Probably not the right place for this but any suggestions on an electric fan or fans for a 454?

Thanks guys for the quick replys, I'm going to look into the windstar fans for sure
I went to the junkyard for them however they're pretty cheap new.

Nice, do you have the pro flo on your engine at all?
My twin electric fans and shroud came with radiator.
If I had to go single, I'd look at one of Ford fans below.
Consensus among confirmed junkyard builders is the Lincoln Mark VIII 18-inch fan or Ford’s slightly smaller, 17-inch Taurus LS/’95 Thunderbird/’95 Cougar 17-inch fan are the best.

rock auto has them windstar fans starting at 78.80 . then 5% disc code in the vendor section here brings it down .
i have a edelbrock pro flo 4 on my 1 truck . just no electric fans hooked up yet . this summer i should have time for that .

Nice, thanks guys. I really appreciate the help, as far as the pro flo goes I'm guessing the wires that come off the computer will kick em on an off so I'll just need to run power an groud? Seems easy enough
ground trigger on most fan / relay controls now .
use a good beefy relay to handle the amps . as the ecm units for aftermarket efi are NOT setup to handle 30-40-50 amp draw some of these fans will pull .

I didn't even think about that, I got a lot to learn still, do you guys have any suggestions as far as what kind of relay to run or where to get a relay from?
check out the link I posted, bunch of schematics, pics and how to's there.

Awesome. Thanks
Windstars are the way to go and the only way to go. You can run them on relays with a switch works great until you forget to turn them on. I run a Spal fan controller works great.
