Description
The Mishimoto MMFAN-16 is a 16-inch, high-flow slim electric cooling fan engineered as a direct upgrade over restrictive OEM fans or as a fix for fitment conflicts caused by aftermarket radiators, intercoolers, and other engine bay hardware. Rated to move up to 1850 CFM at a maximum of 1800 RPM, this fan pairs strong airflow with a slim profile that mounts flush against a radiator core. Its straight, black plastic ten-blade design is fully reversible, letting it operate as either a puller or pusher fan depending on the cooling setup.
Built for universal installation, the MMFAN-16 gives builders flexibility when a factory cooling fan no longer clears a thicker radiator, a larger intercooler, or other Cooling system upgrades. The fan runs on 12V power through a female two-prong clip plug wiring connection and draws 11.6 amps running, and it ships with a black ABS shroud already fitted to help direct airflow efficiently across the core. Because the fan relies on universal mounting tabs rather than vehicle-specific brackets, Mishimoto recommends pairing it with the separately available Mishimoto universal fan mount kit (MMFAN-MOUNT) for a secure, custom installation, and using a fan shroud for optimal operation. While the fan can be reversed for pusher duty by flipping the blades and reversing polarity, its original design is optimized for puller configuration, so performance may be reduced when run as a pusher.
Vehicle Applications
The Mishimoto MMFAN-16 is built as a universal-fit Cooling fan rather than a vehicle-specific component, so it is not tied to a single make, model, or year. It is intended for installation on any vehicle or engine bay with room for a 16-inch diameter fan with a 3.2-inch hub depth, and since mounting hardware is not included with the fan itself, Mishimoto recommends using the Mishimoto universal fan mount kit (MMFAN-MOUNT) to secure it in place for a clean, custom fit.
