I think that 2800 cfm would work fine. I am going to take the plunge next
week, I have not seen ANY fans that do more than 2800 cfm, the best I have
seen for dual 12" fans is 2400 cfm. The "Black Magic" fan has an integral
shroud which means it will flow what it says.

|Hey Mark,
|Would one 15" fan cool the truck down enough, especially in Texas' summers?
|(i.e. 100+ degrees?) I know they have a switch that you can turn to a
|specific temp for the fan to turn on. I don't know the size of the dual
|elec. fans, but I know they are smaller than 15" each.(I hope so, the
|radiator isn't that big) I'm looking into buying an electric fan myself for
|my V6. I already have an 180deg. thermo., which I might change to
160degree.
|The 180 doesn't seem to be cooling down my truck much. It seems like it is
|running at the same temp as it was before, but I don't know. Do you happen
|to know the size of the radiator in the Daks, off hand? Thanks Mark.
