The Lincoln Mk 8 uses an 18" fan with a much larger shroud, 26" x 19" I believe. The 90-95 3.8L Taurus uses the same fan motor as the lincoln but has a 17" fan and a much smaller shroud, 21" x 16". The Lincoln will move a bit more air but at the price on an unacceptably large fan and shroud for 90% of Cobra applications. The 90-95 3.8L Taurus fan seems to be the most popular "transplant" fan by far. Stay away from the "SHO" fans as they're smaller and weaker that the 3.8 Taurus and Lincoln.
