The auxillary fan will not replace the mechanical driven fan. the aux fan is a pusher fan and is ok for what it does. a puller fan that is on the back side of the radiator is more efficient. It can pull a lot more through the rad than a pusher fan will.

Today I was at a street rod show, and here was a guy with a Bucket "T", 383 stroker with a Jimmy blower etc.... and pushing 600hp. on the back side of the radiator is this 16" electric fan . maybe I should have told him he was going to over heat his engine and all sorts of bad things were going to happen.

this something I posted on ARMY`s thread

Will I get vibration problems if I remove my cooling fan?
