Vertical Radiator Fan Average CFM rating
I have done lots of research on how much cfm I am going to need for a griffin vertical set-up, but I can't find what I am looking for. I designed the shroud set-up pictured below, with a single 12" puller fan, but I am not sure if it will move enough air. I am thinking around 2-2,500 cfm with a fully sealed shroud should be enough? Maybe a 12" and a 10" fan will be needed? I was originally going to run a 14" fan but it will not fit my shroud.

Well I needed around 3300 cfm to keep my car cool with a vertical griffen in the fall not to mention over the summer. 2400 CFM the car would get hot in traffic or sitting still.
Next year when my car goes back together it will have about 4400 CFM of fan blowing though the radiator to make it live in the summer

Also, were you running the turbo with the fan set-up you described?

1 puller shrouded (half the rad) and one pusher on the other half of the rad. (limited room due to Turbo. Car would get hot and overheat in traffic in 80 degree weather. Cruising was fine
I now have 2 pushers no shroud. one flows 2200cfm by itself and the other does 1100cfm. But fall hit by then. Car run MUCH cooler now.

i using two 1000cfm pusher fans with my griffin radiator. NO shroud. its never seen anything above 210, even in stop and go traffic, or on a dyno. Cruising, i can barely get it to temp at 160...
i tried a single larger pusher fan with no shroud at first, and it would overheat. I think it was only 1600 cfm though.
what aslo helped was this little piece of metal i put in front of the new core support.
