You guys with electric fans have you had to upgrade your alt to make up the lost power

It's not totally necessary, but a strong battery helps, and alt upgrade is not a bad idea at all. Also a big 3 upgrade is alwayss a goood idea.

Great thread! Liking the big dual fan setup. Wish someone would tow in the mountains and heat so I can see how it'll work under those load conditions.

A couple years ago I found the aux 454 fan at the swapmeet for $2. Installed it in front of the 11x11x1.5" TruCool (aka; B&M Super Cooler) trans cooler. The motor got water in it and failed about a year later, but I discovered the company that made the fans is still in Australia, so I ordered a new fan motor. I've since added a stainless band to act as a shroud and improve air flow.
