I will say from experience that these ebay and Amazon fan kits are subpar. Look at the cfm spec. Also the motors rarely last past 1-2 years. Don’t skimp on the wiring. Cheap is not the goal here for your cooling system or you’ll regret it.
Stock alternator is 105a and cannot keep up with two fans and the normal load. He will need to upgrade in some fashion.
