G'day,

I just posted three pictures of a Caddy fan I got off eBay to fit to the
Caddy 500 I've got in Aus.

http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/showphoto.php?photo=39218

I bought it because I had read that Caddy's run hot. My engine will be setup
to run on AutoGas (60% LPG/ 40% Butane) and it will run even hotter.

IIRC the auction noted it was removed from an ambulance or was it a hearse?

At any rate as you can see it has MONSTROUS blades at extreme angles and
they are flex blades, however, it appears that it came from GM!

I am loathe to run it as is with just the spacer as I am SURE it will put a
serious dent in mileage.

What's the consensus re running it with a clutch?

If I can make it fit that is!

Regards,
Rob M.
