    Default Thermo Fan Benefits

    Hey all,

    This may seem silly but as my name suggests, I have an old 4runner with the ever reliable but slower than a month of sundays 3y!! My question is this:
    Will there be ANY power gained by ditching my clutch fan and whacking in a thermo fan?
    I realise that the engine will rev easier when stationary but would there be any gain whatsoever when driving along?

    I'm just looking at any cheap gains i can get before I begin my 7m-ge swap next year

    Cheers peoples

    yes ,but put the biggest or double fans in to make the most out of it there are 2 x 12" fans behind here pushing air thru the rad ,best type of set up & gives space in the engine bay too . dont be weak put a 1UZ in it
