Electric Fans... Y in shroud?

[crazy longhorn]

Just a little thought on elct fan(s).....If the cooling system is up to the job, the fan or fans will not run at cruise speed, you are pushing enough air through the radiator @ 55 -65 mph to keep that engine cool! Sitting in traffic, thats a bit different on a hot day I agree with covering the complete rad , with the shroud....set the controls up with the themostat on temp. I ran 2 -14" flex a lites, on a home brew shroud (modified tin shelf). The controls were painless, on 185/off 165.....160 stat, & a 4 row copper/brass radiator. Never over 180 on the temp on the hyway cruise, & they would switch on/off in traffic on a 105 degree day in Illinois(never bust 190). WOT, on the hyway.....the old booger would kick 210 (not bad after 4 or 5 miles) But she would cool right down, back @ cruise speed. These fans were "wall to wall" on that radiator tho.
