Fan clutch ID
« on: July 28, 2010, 05:16:45 AM »
Looking at my collection of fans and clutches for a 68 S GT coupe.  Was looking at a C6OE-F fan and know its not correct for the car, 67 390 IIRC but the clutch (which looked like it had been mated to the fan a looong time) was marked C7SE-A. 

I can't find a reference anywhere to this number...  It may have a B or an E in front of the C, there is some very faint linework that could be a stamp or just a trick of the light... 

Coil bimetal type that looks period correct.

Anyone know what this clutch might be from?

I believe that clutch is the T bird piece. The 68 390 would have the C8OE B fan coupled with either the C8OE B or C8OE C clutch or C8OE A w/AC

Thanks Tim, have the right fan, the clutch has proved hard to find (or stupidly expensive, found one used at $500, too rich for me even if it is a limited release item for the 68 390!) and was looking at the ones I have as "fit for purpose" and came across the odd number...
