It has been a while, I hope all is well with everyone. What type of electric fan should I install in my 67 TR4A? It is going to get pretty hottt soon here in phoenix, and I wanna drive as late into spring as possible. Thanx in advance.

That eBay guy is certainly Mr Fan (good prices too, I think).

What will work depends on how you plan to use it. Is it in addition to the stock fan or in place of the original? As a pusher or puller? Thermoswitch controlled or manually controlled?

Size will depend on the radiator... TR4s can use a 12", apparently TR6s use a 14", don't recall the width of a 4A rad.

I drive all summer. I get overheated, the car does fine.

I experimented with those thin fans but they just never moved enough air...for sheer airflow I went with one of these big Spal pusher fans. This one is the 10" model. This fan really puts out the airflow and solved my overhheating problems. It is noisy, however.
