Anyone run any of these? I hear both are great for crawlers that run warm. From what I can find the lincoln fan draws much more air? I have a flex-a-lite electric fan w/shroud now thats around 2000cfm. Doesnt do to bad, around 190, until long inclines or hillclimbs, then I sometimes jump up to 230. Running a griffin aluminum radiator, e-fan, and a 160 tstat.
 
From what I know, they are almost the same fan, just have a different shroud layout. I got both of them from a buddy at one time, the taris kind of sits at a slight angle in the factory shroud, the vi is more square, easier to adapt in some cases. The fans motors and blades looked identical.

I just saw a Taurus fan on CL for like $30 or something a day or so. For controlling it, hit the pick-n-pull and get the 2-speed relay unit from a Volvo. Cheap and works perfect.
