has anybody modify a set of stock fans to work with the griffin radiator. I was thinking of getting a set of lt1 fans and making a shroud..

I personally would only run a oe type fan for proper air flow if its a street car. Why the small Griffin radiator? IMO the lower support should be modified and a radiator with a bigger core should be used. My radiator is 27x19.5x2.5 and fits perfectly.
Idk I just don't get why people reduce the vehicles cooling capacity.but you probly can make it work or use a Taurus fan

yea i tried about 5 radiators and fan setups over the past 6 years. i found that the fans matter more than the radiator. the taurus fan works better for me now. here is a pic of the taurus fan. nthe 106mm turbo takes up alot of space.

Stock fans on a griffin radiator... Works great. Its tight... but runs now and nothing has melted.
Mid build pics... but you can see it.

Larger turbo sat above the fans.... this old setup of mine worked perfect.
