Already have a huge 4 core aluminum Be Cool radiator and tried running both twin 12" fans from an Excursion and a clutch fan from a Duramax. Thinking this probably the reason no OEM company has ever come out with a V8 gas turbo setup in any towing capacity.

Regardless, already sold the gas turbo drivetrain for about 4x what I had into it. Allowed me to buy the Cummins and NV4500HD with a couple thousands left over for a stout clutch and misc items for the swap.
