Has anyone converted over a nonclutched fan (electric fan for rad. cooling), to a clutched fan setup? I'm using a 91 Vette motor and I'm not thrilled about using a electic fan. Any ideas???

I say keep the electric fan. I list switching to an electric as one of my first "water forging" mods for mechanical fan engines. Plus, with a Black magic or other QUALITY radiator fan, you will pull plenty of air to cool the rad/engine.

Just my $0.02

When I did mine I just ditched all the serpentine stuff and swapped on v-belt accessories. Wasn't a real challenge just had to put a slight bend in the alternator bracket to make it match up. Other than that a straight bolt on. But they also make fans that bolt up and work with the serpentine set up. I guess its a horse a piece. But I was ditching some of the accessories so it was easier to just go to a simplier set up.
