Default Late model C4 Cooling Fans

Does anyone know of a kit that is offered to replace the GM dual fan set up on our radiators to a larger single fan set up?

Try SPAL fans. They may not have direct replacement part numbers, but they are the same kind GM HIGHTECH performance used on thunderchicken, there 396 LT-1 Firebird. They loved them.
My 396 with the facotry fans runs around 185 all day here in Hawaii, and that is with a BECOOL radiator. The Be Cool requires allot more air flow, and when I hit the highway, 167-174 + - 2 degrees with air on.

Yep the stock fans are fine. But I am looking for something that could replace the twin fans with a single large fan that can provide equal to or greater airflow than the twins. I may need more room for a T Trim blower installation so I was trying to cover my bases.

I've got the stock dual fan setup with a manual switch, BeCool radiator and an electric waterpump.

Works great! :cheers:
