Mine has a bmw one stamped 1985 probably a leccy one from an aircon car.

However its at an angle not right upto the rad, not sure if it should be snug upto the rad ????????

Mines snug up to the rad and its from an E34 (5 blade iirc) been on there 3 years with no problems at all, they are a tight fit under the slam panel and i think i had to massage the bottom to get it in and tight up to the rad.

That fan from ebay should be fine.

I've got one of those ebay fans, not sure what size it is though. Works fine so far, haven't given it a proper workout yet on a trackday though :twisted:
