Default C6 radiator fan...

Has anyone used a C6 radiator fan on their project? The reason that I ask is that I plan to use one on my Cougar, but I want to know how accurate the pictures are.

The AC Delco looks like this:

Some of the other off brands look like this:

I want one that looks like the AC Delco, but I read a review on Amazon that has me questioning the appearance. The review said that it didn't look as advertised, which has me scared to order it. The listing on Amazon has the following (scary note):

"Note: ACDelco partners with other manufacturers to supply the parts your car was originally built with. This product is in a ACDelco package, however the part may have been manufactured by an independent ACDelco supplier and could have a different color or shape than the product image above."

Anyone use the AC Delco one? Did it look like the one in the picture with the full shroud?

Thanks! Did you get your fan from the dealer or is it an AC Delco that I posted pictures of?

I'm smart. I'm using a C5 setup. The factory gm part number for a C6 fan is 15819952

Thanks Buddy...I sincerely appreciate the effort, but as you noted, I am looking for a C6 set-up, which is a single fan.

I decided to get the Dorman C6 fan. It was on sale on Amazon for 80 bucks, which I couldn't pass up. I'll post pictures when I get it in a few days.

Interesting. I ordered the Dorman fan for $80 free Prime shipping. Now it is listed for $121...

For anyone that runs across this thread in the future, see my Cougar build thread for pictures and details of the C6 fan assembly.
