OKay time for another question, which fan is corrrect?

[Wollfen]

I got a variety of clutch fans here and I am wondering which one is period correct for the 1978 440 Hp motor? Check out the pic.

Never ever new there was such an animal...78' "HP" 440. Thought that year was the last hurrah for the 440...and it was a smog hog by then.

Which one has the highest part number?

Parts book shows

3462 186 (fixed blade)
3462 190 (Flex fan)

I'd mount the 7 blade fan onto the lower right clutch. Damn Pebble Beach...

Yup it sure is a HP stamped pad and its got a 78 casting date too, so Im thinking it is out of a cop car. Aidan bought this beast.

Yep. 205 hp instead of the regular 195 hp...

That's a place right? ;)

Surely at least 230 hp? Equal to a 318? Heh.

How the mighty 440 had sunk so low.
