Re: People who have aluminum radiator w/ electric fans

I got the Be Cool kit included the aluminum radiator with built-in trans cooler, dual fans, relays, and over-flow can. Got it through Jegs.

Re: People who have aluminum radiator w/ electric fans

I have a Howe radiator, model is for our trucks. Have the Flex-Lite fans like big all 71 has. Mine were meant for a new style Chevy 1/2 ton. Fits perfect to radiator. I just started using this setup with a 440 BB with 12.5:1 compression. Only problem was that I had to move the radiator forward to clear the pulleys. The fans are great, they kick on at 60% load and increment speed as temperature rises. Mine don't even stay on that often. Definitely worth the money if you have a lot to keep cool. I'll post pictures when I get some.

Don't remember if I bought it direct from Howe or not, but here is the link to their site.

Just select the one for 67-72 Chevy Pickup, Auto or Manual Trans.

My flexalite fan is # 292.

Re: People who have aluminum radiator w/ electric fans

You might want to look into some LS1 dual fans from a Camaro, they can be made to fit a lot of different radiators, and are excellent pieces as well.

Re: People who have aluminum radiator w/ electric fans

Here are some pictures of mine

Notice how far my radiator sits forward into the core support.
