Oh that's easy. Flex-a-lite doesn't move enough air for a V8 Dak with AC.
I use 2 Spal fans pulling over 3000 cfm and they're barely adequate in
traffic on hot days. On the other hand, if a viper fan can cool a V10
engine with AC it can certainly cool our V8's. Realistically though, the
stock Dak setup is adequate for normal driving but if you start bumping up
the horsepower and need to keep it cooler than stock at the track then
something better is needed.
