Has anyone here replaced their belt driven fan with a electric? Why I am I considering this? Because the skid doesn't have the stock motor and and the fan center height is higher with the other motor. So he installed a smaller fan 12" instead of the stock size 15" to fit into the shroud. Thx Randy

Thx Tazza for the response. I was considering the shroud idea but does anyone know hAny good tips out there for building the shroud?ow deep the fan should be inside the shroud ?Does anyone know what the stock fan's size and cfm would be? Thx RandyIf the fan moves enough air and as long as you build a suitable shroud i can't see why not.
Opps should have edited the post before posting, sorry. My questions were ; 1)How deep should the fan sit in the shroud? 2)Does anyone know what the stock fan's size and cfm would be? 3)Does anyone have any good tips for building a shroud?
