Looking for correct fan and fan clutch
« on: February 17, 2014, 09:22:52 PM »
I have a 1967 Mustang Fastback GTA 390 S Code without A/C. I was wondering if anyone knows what the correct fan and fan clutch. The build date of the mustang is December 26th, 1966.
Thank you for any help.

First welcome to the site

From a Buildsheet dated 2 days and another 2 weeks after your car was built

Fan = C6OE-F

AC and non Ac S codes shared the same fan ;)

Since you  have a Dec built car the original clutch assy was marked C7AE-C a part introduced into production in Dec and dropped out of production approx near the end of Feb 67. So this will be a hard one to find since it was only used for three months. Notice in the picture that there are holes for the bolts in the hub not slots like many of the replacements. Picture shows a -A the prior clutch assy but they are marked much the same way and have the same features originally

Hope this helps









Again welcome to the site - hope you find it useful in your efforts

To add to Jeff's post the clutch was provided to Ford by at least two different vendors and the physical design between the two varied. Here is a picture of the other one . To add to the confusion there is a typical later replacement on the left and the assemblyline on the right. The front covers are different.

Thanks for everyones help!!!! I found a fan on ebay, I'm just not sure what to do with the clutch. I want to keep it as close to correct as possible.

Sorry, I've been doing some research and getting more confused.. ???

A fan clutch stamped C7AE-C would be used for 3 months up to the end of Feb 67 on 390 GT/A w/o air. What about a 390 non GT w/o air built early Feb?

The description in the ad for the fan clutch says:

C7ZE-8A616-B
 For all 1967 - 289 engines with air conditioning (fan marked C6OE-G), and all 390 engines (fan marked C6OE-F), without air conditioning then used on all 390 GT after 2-27-67


Sounds like this would be right for my 67 non GT w/o air car built 2/7/67 with a fan marked C6OE-F.  ????

You want the C7ZE-A
A Forum member purchased the B Clutch last week which was correct 289 after 2-27-67 or a non AC 390 after 2-27-67

Thanks for the help.

I thought the C7ZE-A was the service part but I also read where is was the correct assembly line part for a 390 non air car before 2/27/67.  ????

What do I have here?
