Dual Electric Fans - High CFM

Seeking some proven suggestions on High CFM dual fan setups? 5,000+ CFM Dual Puller Fans preferred

Ordered a Flex-a-lite fan and thought we could modify the shroud to wrap around the steering box, but doesn't appear this is going to be a viable option. Anyone had luck with a high CFM dual fan setup that installed around the steering box with minimal modifications?

Thank you!

I have dual LS1 fans on both a 1987 Firebird and a 1987 G20 Van. Both steering boxes hug the radiator and there were no fitment issues, aside from the factory TPI firebird intake ducting which I did not have anyway for the Firebird since the system was off a Camaro. The Firebird has a factory replacement 350 TPI radiator that is cooling a moderatly built 350 with a/c. The G-van has a factory replacement 28" wide 454 van radiator and it cools a ~400 hp 6.0L just fine with a/c blasting. I using the G-van as a 2nd way of saying I have not found a problem with those fans pulling enough CFM to keep it cool.
