Default Flex Fan questions

My original fan is in very bad shape. Last night while tuning the carb., I noticed a crack in one of the blades ! :cuss

For a temporary replacement until I locate an original part, I'm thinking of putting an OEM style flex fan - 7 blades staggard.

Anyone run one of these ? ....I'm also thinking my orig. is 17 1/2" so I'd hafta go with the 17" fan, right ?!? :confused:
