Have a 78 k10 with a 350 and for some reason I can not find a mechanical fan for it. Any suggestions?

Find a stock metal blade fan (6 or 7 blade, IIRC) in the junkyard and buy an HD or severe duty fan clutch. Also make sure you have a fan shroud.

Use a high flow 195 degree thermostat, and consider using a high flow water pump( although a stock pump should be fine). If you have a decent 3 row radiator it should all work really well.

I know a guy with several. But it should not be hard to find a fan. I bet eBay has a few on it right now. This is not something your going to buy at advance auto parts or orileys.
