Welcome and will answer the fan question. I talked extensively with
Flex-a-lite rep via e-mail. The Black Magic was my choice until he told me
no, you need 70% fan on the radiator area to be effective. The M210 dual
12" puts 70.5% on the radiator, while the Black Magic puts in the low 50s,
I forgot the exact #, but it was not even close. My engineer son figured
this out for me. I am very satisfied with the cooling of the twin fans with
and without the a/c on in temps in the high 90s here already and not even
reached the midway pt on the gage.
Leach headers, I feel better after Bob's reply to my post, which you
probably saw, makes sense to me and they look so darn good in the engine
area! But my first mod would be the fan install.
