fan w/ shroud or electric fan only?
need opinions on what would be optimal for cooling on the street, my 71 ventura will have a warmed 455 in it, the motor went high 12s in a heavier car, same gear ect ect, so it will be a 12 sec ride no matter what, i will be running a 4 core griffin aluminum rad, auto trans, 3.73s, i will drive it a lot on the street, which would be the better choice, a stock fan set-up with the stock shroud, or an electric puller fan only? if the electric choice, what cfm is anyone running for cool results on the street? thanks for any info. jeff.
