Can someone verify what this front fan in the picture came off. The one closest to the front with the curved up ends, the one behind is LJ. The front fan measures 14 3/4" tip to tip..

Looks like a HQ V8 engine fan with the curled tips.

Dave it may be too short for HQ V8, as is 3/4" shorter than a standard LJ Torana fan which is 15 1/2".

They just look like one of the 100 million fans of an old red motor, are you asking specifically if they are 186 or 202 or 253 or 308?

Or if they were torana or if kingswood used the same fans?

Won't just be Kingswood, could be any Holden from Belmont (or straight Holden) through to Premier/LS or even HQ Statesman.

The HQ era broadcast sheets I have show part numbers (last 3 digits) for fan blades, a 1974 HQ V8 manual no A/C uses 791 (3927791). But a HZ era broadcast sheet I have shows FA for a 308 manual ute, these use the same fan as HQ V8 without A/C p/n 3927791 (which is the FA fan). So the FF is just going to be a maybe a standard W size Holden 4 blade off something HQ-WB, possibly a later part number fan like 9942275 (V8 cab chassis no A/C) or 9942276 (6cyl cab chassis no A/C) although it sounds small so maybe even LH Torana. Look at a few LX-UC broadcast sheets if you can find some.

Just trying determine what model /s Holden's it was fitted to.

It may be off a Torana, may not be a Holden if it is smaller than an LJ one.

Yel327 you may be onto something with the V8.

I found these images and some text

So the top left appears to be what I have, HQ Monaro V8.

HQ Monaro V8 (Monaro, LS or GTS) will all be the same fan as any other HQ-HZ 253/308/350 non-A/C and non-cab chassis, this is the FA fan. FB will be whatever the next part number was, possibly V8 cab chassis non-A/C.

That photo is a HT 253, and its fan has longer tips than the top left one. These also use an FA fan ie 3927791.

I've probably got 20 of them in the shed, i'll check and see if I have marked any when i've removed them from engines. My HJ Prem has its original but it has A/C.

It could be from an L34 but if it is it is also from any 6cyl LH (no A/C) as they are the same fan p/n 2823424. These are 14.75"/375mm diameter although there was an optional L34 fan which is 15.5" diamter which is probably the standard V8 FA fan from Holden engines.

So looking at the length I guess the FF fan is an LH Torana 6cyl or L34 fan.

Hmmmm, now we wait for all the "L34" fans to suddenly appear on Ebay!
