I bet there is a way to make the fan more efficient. Mine is a 77 and it barely puts out any air flow.

Oh and you guys are awesome! What a great bunch of people. Glad to have found this forum! You all rock!

See if the motor is working on the lower speeds... and on high... if it is working on the lower speeds and not on high, then I'd take a hard look at the high blower relay and/or the connector that plugs into it.

Is there any way to make it blow harder.. sure. You have to switch the blower fan and make a 3/4" spacer. All the blower motors turn the same RPM's so the difference is in the squirrel cage. https://willcoxcorvette.com/corvette...-and-fan-68-82

Oh man this is just the information I was wanting. I vaguely remembered seeing I believe it was a YouTube video where someone installed a larger squirrel cage. I'll start though with the relay, and wiring.

BTW nice to see you are on here, i was checking out your website just recently I believe it was yesterday.

Just placed a nice order for ~200.00 of Corvette literature on your webpage. I'm sure it will be money well spent!
