the early cars also had an electo-magnetic fan clutch and those parts have been unavailable for a long time, so most have been converted to electric. Less hp draw with an electric

The electric fan gives you a lot more hp than the electro-magnetic fan too. I converted mine years ago and it felt like I added a turbo. :D
