Dan,

You might want to check the archives. There was some discussion of removing
the clutch fans and installing the viper elecrtic fan.

I had my viscous fan seize up on me. Now it rotates at the crank speed no
matter
how high the RPMs get. It makes a loud sound and a not so pleasant 'drone'
sound
when I'm crusing on the highway.

Anyway, its '92 V8 with A/C . A guy says he can fix it for $175 parts
& labor. Is
this too much?

Also whats involved to get the fan replaced. Is it something I can do. I
have
a limited amount of tools.

Please send any info you can too: dan@trangosys.com ( my work address
)

Thanks!!!
