Post 5 blade fan...

Both engines used the same fan...these fans were notorious for the noise they made as the rpm's went up...most of them were replaced back in the day with a flex fan. Interesting thing is, they actually worked pretty well at cooling the BB motors.

Again, there is a lot of stuff out there about what fan is correct...based on all the info I have seen, including survivor cars, there was never a 4 blade on these engines.
