Rearranging the front of the car meant removing the stock belt-driven fan in favor of some thinner electric fans. Flex-a-Lite happens to make a dual-10-inch fan that covers the entire 240SX/Silvia radiator. The Twin Line 320 fan assembly is just a hair too big, forcing us to trim the shroud near both radiator hoses, and abandon the mounting method pictured here for the standard, through-core mounts. These are plastic bands that get jammed through the perfect, brand-new Koyo core. (Ouch!) The shroud meets the radiator with a big, soft rubber seal, however, and as much as we hate the through-core mounts, they should work.
