Need a good electric fan

Im looking at buying a nice high performance dual electric fans for my 91 camaro rs 305. I am always having problems with it over heating on the streets at red lights. It runs about 220 on the highway, little warmer on those hot summer days. The fan I have now doesn't even work, but when it did it still didn't make much of a difference.

IMO there is only one good electric fan. They are not cheep but they work the best!!!

Look up www.spal-usa.com The fan that I have on my 82 moves over 3200 cfm of airflow.

Here is a good one that's fairly inexpensive, it flows 2950 cfm and only draws 9.5 amps. Which is amazing compared to our stockers.
