Any recommendations, ideas.

I need a slim-line fan for my car. My current flex-a-lite came apart and self destruted, grrrr. The rubber moulding came undone for some reason, tangled the blade and burnt the motor.

I've got the 110 puller seen here: http://www.flex-a-lite.com/auto/html/low-profile-electric.html

I want to just replace the motor but it has always felt out of balance. I bought it new from Summit Racing.

Right now I'm torn between getting a new one or something different.

But I really like the one on this car...

Anyone know what it is, specs and where I can find one or two, lol?

Thanks.

I'm running an electric SPAL fan in the front of my car to make room for the intercooler.

Mark had to run the above fan since the S52 swap in an E30 leaves no room for the water pump fan.

you can see mine peaking out from behind the IC:
