Electric fan(s)?
I sat in the drive throuh last week for 10 minutes and my crate 350 got pretty hot. Any reccomendations on a cooling fan that would fit the stock radiator? I can see overheating might be an issue in the summer.

Re: Electric fan(s)?
Are you runnung a fan shroud? If not they will always overheat, GOTTA have a fan shroud. Also what Rad are you running V8 or inline 6 size?
With the V8 rad and fan shroud you should have no problems

Re: Electric fan(s)?
I had a couple of small electric fans mounted to my rad (top left and bottom right) and they worked okay but after idling for a while my temp would go up.
I found a larger Chrysler fan/shroud assembly that REALLY moves the air, and it fits inside my stock fan shroud. It keeps my 327 nice and cool. Greg.
