Frank,
Dont do it! I originally mounted my electric fan using those "plastic
attachments", and all hell broke loose. I had one of the ty-wrap type
attachments loosen up and back out toward the mechanical fan mounted on the
water pump. Guess what happened next? The fan got a hold of that thing and
destroyed 3 rows of the radiator. I have since fabricated a new bracket
that bolts to the front side of the radiator using the stock radiator/upper
shroud mounting bolts. If you must use the plastic type, see if you can
thread them in such a way that they are outside the perimeter of the
mechanical fans' swept area. I made the bracket as unobstuctive as possible
in regards to air flow. Make sure you put the shroud back on.
Have Fun
