Default Griffin Cooling Fan Question

Hey Guys,

I'm running a front mount turbo setup with the turbo on the driver side of the vehicle, I am also running the conventional Griffin that everyone seems to be using. My Flex A Lite 420's just recently gave out on me due to the heat my Turbo was giving off and killed one fan.

I'm considering running these fans in combination:
(1) Puller http://www.summitracing.com/parts/DER-16925/
(1) Pusher http://www.summitracing.com/parts/DER-16926/

They will be OFFSET with the pusher fan being on the driver side to prevent this from happening again and the puller being on the passenger side.

Do you guys think these will be sufficient to keep my LS1 cool.

Thanks In Advance,

Rob

That's great too hear I think I may just pull the trigger on these fans. Are you running the Griffin or the OEM radiator and did you use the original fan wiring aswell?

Thanks again Trip.
