Re: Poll: Mechanical or electric fans?

That's very interesting! I thought mechanically belt driven fans were doomed after the 80s.
This is just a thought...but could your friend possibly have the detuned corvette engine? I know Special Edition Roadmasters had that engine as an option in 96' (not sure about 95') and that could explain the belt driven fan...different engine and all
