    One thing that I have recently found out is that I have overlooked PLENTY of excellent electric fans at the junk yard and e-bay. I bought a set of lS1 dual fans for 40 dollars and 25 shipping to my front door. These fans pull plenty of air to cool a vette engine so they should be fine for my stock build. The LS1 fans are made better than any aftermarket cooling fan I have seen. There is a Ford fan that is a single unit that is supposed to pull 5500 cfm if a single fan is needed.

    I also got a VSC unit from flexilte to operate the fans. It brings the fans on at 60 % load and as the temp goes up so does the output of the VSC to 100%. It even controls the fans to come on with the A/C. I paid about 200 with every thing ready to turn on. Using 10 gauge wire and good connectors. For a unit that is made for my truck with the same controller I would have to pay 600 dollars for the unit.
