Does anyone have on of these in hand?

I'm curious why they went to the trouble and expense of including the fan? The factory fan is very effective, so why not just make an adapter kit for the clutch?
Would be much less install trouble and more cost effective I'd imagine...
Looking again it looks like its one unit. Disregard previous post!


Justin,
The neolithic fan that is the stock part is very loud. It is good at moving noise and absorbing horsepower. That is about the sum of it.
This new fan has aerodynamic blades and that makes a big difference. I really wish I still had access to an ASHRE tunnel, because I would like to know just how much better it is.

Warning, if you have one of these fans and are checking the transmission fluid, do not bump the switch. You may have a problem getting the stick back in the tube.

Matt
