Got a question on this one, how many people actually have the 4 blade fixed fan on their 396/325 and how many have a clutch fan?  Would be interested in the year and what options also.  Mine came with the fixed 4 blade fan and I replaced it with the clutch fan because the fixed fan had a stamp on it that read FoMoCo and I took that as Ford Motor Company and obvoiusly not right.  anyone else seen this???  Found the CRG report a while ago and have been questioning it ever since.
My car is a 68/396-325/M20/no AC.

Most L35 cars got the 4 blader.
I've looked at enough docs to say that. :)

Go to the CRG Reports button in the upper left corner and click on it.  Then click on the "cooling systems" report and go to the bottom of the page and you will find a picture of the 4 blade fan.

Interesting Fact: My 68 RSSS 396/325 Auto (build date 11/67) with AC came with a four blade fan unless the original owner switched it out. I know the report says that it should be a five blade fan with clutch. I'm 99.9% sure my setup is original though. Car only has 52000 miles and I have all of the orignal engine components (water pump, alternator, and starter) which I had rebuilt. The fan spacer was still attached to the water pump when I bought the car. Car also has the 4-core Harrison radiator.
