Spal extreme fan for Procharger shroud I looked into the 16" extreme (3000) CFM Spal fan,
I can get one on E-bay for $189 + shipping
Is there another fan , Brand , that will work and fit on the Procharger sheet metal fan shroud that might be as good or better but less $$$
thats a lot of money for just a fan.
Please let me know
and if someone is using something else
thank you

I have a 16" SPAL High Performance straight blade fan for sale, its not as good as the Spal Extreme but its alot better than the old stock ATI supplied fan. I think its 3,000 cfm for the extreme and 2,350 for the high performance

That cfm is lower than ATI's fan, which is 2400 (per ATI customer service).

The 189.00 bucks for that fan is a great price but honestly we tested the high performance fan and the extreme one on several different cores with several different thicknesses and fin count. This was also done in several different zones of the cores themselves. Honestly the money difference between the two and the performance it showed was not worth the money to us. These fans were designed on race cars that were looking for every last ounce of performance and money was not a concern. If you are on a budget then the extra money could be better spent else where in the car.

The stock fans and shroud won't fit because of the ATI head unit and inlet hat.

can you still bolt up the Procharger fan shroud and the 16" fan with no problems?

The SPAL fits into the ATI fan shroud. With the existing tabs it was a tight fit. I ordered the tabs for the SPAL and it fit alot better. Rob was able to get his to fit with the existing hardware.
The SPAL is thinner which made it easier to install.

Bang for the buck fan I would say is Maradyne i think we sell those for about a hundred bucks. We have found virtually no difference in the high performance Spal and their M162k. Every one is starting to sell the crap out of these and they even have the same bolt pattern as Spal.
