Got the condensor fan from a '92 installed today.

car at dead idle, 75 degree day, switch on recirc' but doors open.
46.8º in the vents at fan position 2
50.4º in the vents at fan position 3

best I ever saw even with the stock fan was 60-62º at idle, once the electric fan went in that went way up.

Another interesting thing I put the gauges on to check the pressures, high side went up to ~400psi without any fan, dropped to ~180 with the fan on.

Right now the fan runs constantly with the AC, I'll be changing that so it switches by evaporator temp after I get back from vacation.
