anything stronger than factory blower motor?

I'd like to find a blower motor stronger than the factory. Here in GA, it would be nice a to have. ('71 442)
thanks

If you need a blower motor stronger than factory, there's probably something wrong with your motor or system. Hot or cold air, the motors in these cars should be plenty.

I had another thought. These cars are riddled with duct work and hoses behind the dash. Are you sure everything is there and hooked up right?

I replaced the blower motor in my 71 442 with an aftermarket unit from Car Quest and although it was for a non A/C application, I noticed right away it was more powerful than the factory unit. It is made by Four Seasons, part number 35587. I don't know if there is a different fan motor for an air car. Might be worth an inquiry.

The squirrel cage might be larger for an A/C car. Same diameter but taller.

Thanks guys,
Everything is hooked as factory and works. I just want a blaster for a fan.
And keep the Queen cool as possible.
