EPS 11 Blade Alternator Fan
Hi Pelicans,
I need to replace the 5 for an 11 blade Alternator fan on my 77S. I cannot justify the 750€ price tag on the early version (circa 74/75), so I have found a possible alternative. It's by a company called EPS. I tried to include the link but no luck.  It certainly looks good but I would rather hear it from the horses mouth. Any of you had any experience with this fan? Many thanks, Jason

As far as I can tell, the EPS fan is a good option as OEM new ones are big $$ and good used ones are hard to come by and still likely $$... Tom

A 77s used the later ratio fan with the circle of small holes on the pulley halfs. 78/79 is too small but 80 to 89 will work. I think on a 77 it will require the 725 fan belt because of the larger crank pulley.

Thanks for your feedback Gents,
From what I have read so far the pulley half should be 3.25" diameter for the later spec fans (80-89) Does this sound correct to you ? My old pulley half is that diameter but it is the type with the extra belt for the additional air pump, which I have removed. Cheers, Jason
