Re: Bogus BB Nova 5 Blade Fan
 

Many 772 clutch fans have dates? I have seen them both ways.

Re: Bogus BB Nova 5 Blade Fan
 

Deuce fans are non-numbered & non-dated! (Makes for an easier find https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif )

Re: Bogus BB Nova 5 Blade Fan
 

As Marlin states, no dates or p/n #'s on the Nova fans, the 69-70 Nova BB never got a clutch fan, so the 772 wouldn't be applicable. Wayne, your fan may be correct, it is just I have never seen your type fan on any BB Nova original or otherwise. Wilma, the deer called my office, says you hit him on purpose, you may have to get Catskill on the case, the deer sounds serious...SULLY

Re: Bogus BB Nova 5 Blade Fan
 

How about posting some pics of these fans you are all talking about?It would be great For us folks that are not experts and are in the process of restoring a 68 Camaro.
I have 3 different 5 blade fans and now am confused more than I was before https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif
Thanks

Re: Bogus BB Nova 5 Blade Fan
 

In the Camaro world, all solid lifter cars got clutched fans. That's not true with L78 Nova's??
Here's more info. http://www.camaros.org/coolingsystems.shtml I wrote this for first gen Camaros, but a lot of the basic info will be applicable.

Re: Bogus BB Nova 5 Blade Fan
 

No, 69 & 70 L78 Nova's received a 5 blade non-clutch fan, makes a lot of noise too!

Sully, Wilma..anyone....
Please, in your expert opinion, describe in some detail,
what the "correct" original fan would be for my Feb, 1969 L78 Nova.

( nevermind the fact that the fan is going on the Sept. 1968
L78 engine I bought on eBay, advertised as coming from a '69 Camaro but is in reality an A3000 series block that came from an '69 Atlanta-built Chevelle ) :>

Re: Bogus BB Nova 5 Blade Fan
 

Not an expert on this, but my 70 Nova (Sept prod.) came with a 5 blade, non-clutch fan. I believe this to be correct for your application also.

Re: Bogus BB Nova 5 Blade Fan
 

You guys are confusing me. Marlin's reference is to the Deuces.

So what you are saying is that every Solid lifter car produced by GM in '69-'70 received a 772 clutch fan with or without a date or part number other than Novas w/ L78s?
