I had forgotten you mentioned this. I came back to the thread to post that I checked eBay for a 5-impeller fan and instead found a 6-impeller... and then I checked RockAuto.com and found that they have 6-impellers in stock all the time for less than $50.
So now the question becomes, how and where do I find a smaller pulley to drive it at the higher rate?
And I do wonder what they meant about the 3-impeller working better. Although I'm guessing they may not have been talking about an AC car since it was mainly a performance-build-oriented article.
