My fan has not arrived yet but the Seller reaffirmed that its the Lincoln Mark VIII that was also used in the Taurus from approximately '92-'98. My advice is to go to eBay and search for "Lincoln Continental Fan" and "Ford Taurus Fan" and read through the auctions and you'll start seeing a pattern of fan types/blade styles. Some guys selling these to the 4 wheel drive and hot rod crowds state in their auctions that you should stay away from the aftermarket new Taurus replacement fans because they don't have as much cfm. I don't know if this is true or not, but I figured I would start out with a used $50 fan and if its works decide from there whether to buy a new one or not.
I hate linking to eBay because once eBay drops the listing, the links are dead in this thread, but here is the fan type I bought:
and here is the monster fan.
Read the Seller's feedback on each and you'll what people say about these fans.
