Default what is the amp draw on F body fans?

what is the amp draw on F body fans? will a 30 amp relay live? or will i be needing two relays.

just wondering since i might go with a carb. if i go that route ill use the painless kit with the cylinder head mounted thermostat switch. the current single cooling fan relay i have in my car can handle up to a 30 amp draw.

I don`t know what the exact amperage draw is, but in the GM wiring harness they use a 40A fuse.

I used 2 fans from a 3800 v6 car and a 30 amp fuse and it would end up burning up the fuse after a while , ended up swapping to 2 30A relays and 2 20A fuses. Not sure if the fans from a f-body use more or less amperage.
