I used a fan motor and birdcage from a 91 corvette. I had to make a spacer for it to fit because the C4 fan is longer. It made a HUGE difference, but of course now it's all out due to the vintage air conversion. :)

I made a paper template. Then I got some 1/2 plastic and carved out the spacer. You will be very happy w/results!
