6-Blade Flex Fan Installed 444-544

"FAN CLUTCH" on a B20? Sure, (Ahem!) I left it on, just like it was on (NOT!) when I started.

This is a flexible-bladed fan, which flattens out somewhat at speed, putting less stress on the hub than a fixed-blade fan would. At lower RPMs or at idle, it pulls the maximum amount of air through the radiator.

I've had to remove the clutches from almost every Dodge product I ever owned just to keep them on the road. Except for a litle more noise at speed, there was never any problem with the hubs after many thousands of miles.
