I just had my fan clutch rebuilt at Kirkconnell Corvettes.
The service was excellent with emails both when it arrived, during the process and when it was shipped back, complete with tracking number. Before rebuilding if it was rotated by hand, the fan clutch would act like normal for a couple of turns and then go loose. My car was also running warm on slow cruise during the summer. I believe the rebuild clutch should fix this issue.
I am including before and after photos of the clutch.


As sent out.


The font size and spacing, of the ink stamping, didn't exactly match the original.
Their is another stamping, the CJ, that wasn't there or wasn't visible on the original.
And I am unsure about the bolt and hub finish, where they black phosphate?
I realize I am getting quite particular.
It feels much better and doesn't go loose after a couple turns like it did.
It was also leaking. I consider 57 years acceptable service for an original!
I am happy with the results. The communication, during the process, was second to none! Looking forward to slow cruising from here out.
