FS: 8 blade fan and clutch

[CeylonstonE9]

8 blade fan with clutch. Painted with OK quality. It has a small crack as seen in the pictures. DOES NOT HAVE CENTER NUT

Bought this long time ago just like this but found out I needed center nut too so I had to buy another set with the center nut and bolts.

I am selling this $85 including shipping inside US
Payment method: paypal friend option.

I just installed one of those clutches in my 2800 yesterday
Is this what was on your car?

I was just looking at that front nut and thinking..I should list this. Someone probably needs it!.

I’ve never seen a fan like that.

It is the adapter kit you need when going from friction to visco clutch.

Interesting!
NOTE, these are just for reference as I just happen to be working on this very project.

Good luck with sage!

To me it is the eight blades, square tips and all the holes in the hub area but who knows.

I have much less time here but hadn't seen this weird 8-blade one either. Funny how it is so different from the 5-blade - this one is very German, perfect, every angle the same vs the lopsided 5-blade. A little digging shows this has been presented before, with the supposition that the 8-blade may be the "tropical E9" fan? Not sure exactly what that means...

Thread 'Red blade cooling fans'

Nov 22, 2021

Have purchased a bunch of fans for cheap. I needed only one, but got the rest for free.

I have little knowledge about them, have read a few posts on 9 fan blades and the viscous clutch, but still have some questions.

Wrt the blades:
Wondering what shape is original to e9?
Round tip end or square tip end?
5 blade original but 9 blade better?

Wrt the the thing (viscous clutch?) in middle:
Some are thicker then others, is there a different functionality?
Most of the 9 i can spin when I hold them by the large nut in the center, but I expected (incorrectly?) them to be locked. They do...

The 2002 had a tropical fan but I’ve never seen one on an e9. Funny that real OEM shows an 8 blade buts lists a 9 blade and these were for 74 and later cars.

I have 3 fan blades for my 1972 & 74 Coupes plus a spare and they are ball 9 blade. Two are black and the 3rd one is painted the correct semigloss color of red. Different blade profile than this one.
