I have a 7 blade fan with wide pully. What did this come on? I assume I would get more cooling and more noise.

Probably came off a heavy truck. I think yes to the cooling and noise......Mark

I have 6 bladed fans on two engines. They cool like crazy and maybe I have gone deaf, but I don't get the noise that others complain about.

Is this a crankshaft or generator mounted fan???? G.M.

Typical 8BA off generator mount. Not a good pix but shows the mount.

If it clears the radiator and hoses it will do a good job. G.M.
