Stupid question regarding fans.
In my journey to replace my old motor with a new ZZ4, I'm running into all kinds of "loose" ends.
Should I use the metal clutch type fan from my old engine setup, or buy a new "light" fan? What diameter?
Also, should I replace the radiator? Maybe a new aluminum one?
Thanks for the help. ;)

Hmmmm.....dunno about the fan - sounds like a lighter one would be better.
IF your going for performance the aluminum radiator is a 'good' choice. ;)
- just be sure to change your anti-freeze every 1-2yrs. so it won't turn acidic and eat through the aluminum ! :eek:
Copper radiators are good for everyday use and usually last longer but they don't keep your engine as cool. :chevy
