Isn't the bay area northern California? There is a major difference in temperature between San. Fran and LA. During the summer months it is very common to be at or over 100 degrees every day in South Florida, I would not like to be sitting in I75 traffic in the middle of summer without a radiator fan in my car.
You should be able to see if the fan will clip onto the radiator. In terms of compatibility, if it fits, it will work. A fan is a fan. You could either wire it up so that it is always on, wire it to the thermostat so that it comes on at certain engine temps, or give yourself some kind of switch inside to the car to wire it to, this is common on track cars where they only use the fan when sitting on the grid to start, or sitting in the pits/paddocks. |
