    Looking for improved cooling for towing. Recommend a better clutch fan blade than stock?

    Curious of this as well. I'd like to see one with a steeper pitch.

    I've looked at the flex fans and researched swept blades as well as 5-blade through 12-blade, electric vs drive, different thermostats, installed a heavy duty transmission cooler with it's own fan (mounting photos for research on request).
    I have "do it right" money, not "replace it" money.

    04 DCSB 2.7liter here. In the parts manual under "towing options, fan fluid coupling" it shows a p/n 08921-04950. The standard fan clutch p/n is 16210-75111. I would like to know the difference between these two. I suspect the one under towing options provides enhanced cooling.
