22re electric fan
I have an engine I am getting ready to put in and want to get an electric fan to install at the same time. What should I know about picking a fan to use?
"Electric Fan, Single, 16 in. Diameter, Reversible, 2,010 cfm, Black, Plastic,"
Does this look like a good deal? What should the max cfm be? Size? Any info would help.

Hayes- the biggest problem you'll have with that fan is that it does not pull air across the entire radiator, but only across the area covered by the fan itself. If you really wanted to make it work, you'd need to space the fan off of the radiator and extend a shroud out to each edge of the radiator so that air is pulled across the whole thing. Otherwise, you'll end up overheating at idle / low speeds.
