If you have the single fan set up, put in duals. Stock dual fans will work fine, like a poster said in one of the other threads here, use a second relay to the second fan.

jegs sells a bunch of them. this is the one that moves the most air that i could find in their paper catalog.
Click here for some info on that fan. It moves 2950 CFM of air while pulling 9.5 amps. Thats quite a bit of cfms

I have seen a new fan recently offered in the Summit catalog. Part # SUM-G4833 & SUM-G4836. One gold colored and the other chrome plated. These fans are listed at $299 and are supposedly the same fans used on Ferraris. They spec at upto 2,700 cfm with a .38 horsepower motor, 16 " fan, and have a 300,000 mile drive cycle. An expensive option but if your making some serious horsepower you might want to look into it. Dimensions 16.3" H x 15.75" W X 3.3" D.

I recently recently lost one of my electric fans on the road traveling to the RUSH concert in Raleigh. I found that PEP-Boys sells a replacement fan motor for the 3rd gen dual fans and usually have a couple in stock. The motor sells for about $29 bucks and is made by SIEMENs. I left the receipt in the car and don't have a part # for you right now.

Good luck
