So is this your stock fan or a modified fan for the MB2. I'm interested!

That is the one and only model of fan system I produce in its original form, unmodified.

OK, I'm a little confused because it looked like you were working on a bracket for the MB2.

Here's your previous post:
" I'm seeing at leat 1/8" right now, just gotta come up with a custom fastner solution, or alternate isolator, if the OEM isolater stud was longer it would be a non-issue. Looks like the combo will push the horn outboard about 5/8", the thickness of the fan mount, probably not noticeable in operation. What ever I come up with will work with the MB2 also, I pulled it off the shelf and mocked it up too. I just need more time."

No, I'm not working on a "bracket" for the MB series horns. I'm working on a "mounting solution". The bench pics I posted are simply the MB horn mounted on top of the FCS housing, bolted together to demostrate the clearance between the two components, as opposed to mounting the FCS on top of the OEM horn bracket for a standard installation. The only real challenge is the OEM rubber isolator stud is too short, if it was about 3/4" longer you could just put the FCS on the rubbermount, then the MB horn on top of it and the nut on top to hold it all together. I still don't have it resolved, but I will, and it wont require any bracketry, just some alternative fastening hardware. Will post when I get it, but won't be in the next few days.

Love the fans. They look great and run even better. Great design and function. My friends are jealous and are saving to buy them.
