Re: stock 3-gen dual fans AMP @ CFM ?

i tested a set of those once,found each motor pulled 7.5
amps once up to full speed-so 15a total at 14v,startup
surge was about twice running current.
i do not know the CFM rating,but i'd recon around 1200-
1300 CFM each

Not sure about OEM factory - but the replacements commonly sold (AZ/Advance) generally draw 11.5 amps (might be initial startup amperage draw rather than after startup) and about 1150 cfm each.
