suggestions for electric fan set up?????

Okay I am not sure if this is even the best place to put this thread but... My brother and I are finally building our 1970 Challenger... Original slant six car and will now be a nicely built 383 car. We have put a lot of time and money in to having the motor professionally built by a local racing motor legend. Now... We want to protect our investment with the most bang for our buck. So... Suggestions on radiator and fan set ups? Thinking aluminum radiator and twin electric fan set up but any better suggestions? Preferred brands? CFM rating? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

This is going to be both a street and strip machine. We have been gearing everything towards a "weekend warrior" kind of car... Mostly street and hit the strip now and then.

1. Check with one of the site Sponsors CARID... He might have a suggestion and Might be able to work a discount for members of the site.... You can find them in the Vendor Directory in the upper right of the page.


2. Aluminum Radiator will be great.... I also like the single large fan with a built in shroud used with the Thermo sensor for turning on and off the fan.


But here is an alternative if you need one....

Just Me 2 cents...
