CFM difference between a stock electric fan and a clutch fan?

Im curious what the difference is in CFM over a stock clutch fan 82 FBird LG4 and an 89 Fbird LO3 electric fan?
It seems to me the electric doesent pull as mutch air or Im just thrown off by the way the fan is positioned facing downward compared to striaght forward clutch fan.

Thanks!

good luck finding someone who knows the stock fan CFM.. iv searched before, and NO one knew... And the topic was on top for at least a week. However i do hope that someone will know.


but i would think an electric fan would flow jsut about as much air as a belt fan..

good luck
