AFCO radiator and Flex-A-Lite Trimline fans.

I had to do a little work to make it fit, but oh well.

LG motorsports but you will have to call them, I don't think its on their site. It has a oil cooler incorporated in it. Its expensive, but it cools the best Ive heard of. And duel spal puller fans would work well. Or better yet move the rad forward and use stock.

What do you mean move it forward? The condensor is in front of it.

How much stronger are the spal fans over stock fans?

If you want a cold rad the lg is the coldest, and the stock fans are the strongest. I use the spal because I cant fit stock fans without moving my rad forward or more upright. I rashly typed that and it was late and i was tired. I think this radiator is the very best that can be bought though, followed by the griff. Evans cool coolant works well to enhance any cooling system too, its waterless, and used in nascar, roadracing, F1, ect, look and read at evanscooling.com. Its like 30.00 a gal.
