Hi All,
Looking for suggestions on aftermarket blower fans for my 3.6 conversion. Nothing wrong with the stock 914 equipment, but would like to know what members have used to give the system a bit more 'Umph'. Pictures welcome, thanks in advance! |

A stock set up gets the best pressure at speed (3K RPM-up).
For an effective booster fan that tied into the stock engine fan you need one way flappers for both sides. The stock VW/914 fan has a flapper built into the plastic end of the fan. If you delete the engine fan circuit I doubt if you find an electric fan that does much better than the engine fan at speed. The electric fan mostly just boosts the air pressure at idle/ low speed. |
