Karl,

        Which fan did you add first? Basic physics will imply that you'll only
get the airflow from the biggest fan, since it is an open environment, not
a compression chamber. Also, under what conditions did you notice the vast
temperature drop? At highway speeds, neither fan is doing much, and around
town, the front 1800 CFM fan is probably doing the majority of work.

 Then tell me why when i added the 2nd fan I got a lot more cooling power.
 On the hot days I would over heat very easily,but after I added the 2nd
 fan the problem went away.Could see about a 30 degree difference.
