Try "Taurus" and see what you find.

In my CR with a big block I used a fan out of a 1995 Ford Thunderbird that came with the V-8 and air conditioning. I never have a cooling problem in my CR. I had to cut some of the tabs off to make it fit but it did slide right in. Awesome fan. More powerful than the Taurus. Good Luck.

The high volume Taurus fan that's needed comes out of a 90-91 Taurus with the 3.8 in it. The 3.0 motor has a smaller (less CFM) fan in it. The correct fan is 17", while the "really powerful" fan comes in the Lincoln LSC. It's a 18" fan but it typically is too big for most Cobras. The integral fan shroud, depending on application, will require some shroud carving for a custom fit.
