What kind of radiator do you have? Flex-A-Lite offers a bolt-on electric fan that pulls 3300CFM if you want to talk numbers. I can offer you a special MustangForums discount on your first purchase. Let me know if you want more information or if you have any questions. Looking forward to helping you out,

Yeah I already know about the Nitrous spraybar. In fact I was actually thinking about buying two and putting one on my radiator. ha ha ha.

Currently I have a Custom made 3 core aluminum radiator. How much HP is that supposedly rated at? Like currently mine flows 2800 cfm's but it is only rated for 250 hp. Also PM me some prices on that and if you have anything a little stonger.

I use the flexalite #210
it is a thin dual fan with controls, and I run a little cool all the time, about 175 degrees

The 210 is a very low-profile fan to fit when others won't, however it only flows 2500cfm compared to the 185 Puller. The 185 Puller is the most powerful single fan on the market. I'm running a great deal on this fan right now, let me know if you are interested.

IMO Flex-A-Lite fans suck, when i was looking at fans people told me not to get them because they have peoblems with them, shorting out, the motor locking up. things like that so i did not even think about getting one. With my ford racing rad i ride down the road and the fans never come on, only when you are doing city driving they come on.

Yeah my current problem is that the fan hesitates to turn on and then even if the temp is too high the fan turns off. I'm not sure if it is because the motor gets too hot or what. I currently have the Pro-Form 15" Mustang fan. It works great when workin but for some reason it decides when and when not to work. ha ha ha.

^^ Thats not good. Its def time for a new fan setup. Seriously, I would contact BeCool and see what they have for you and what they would recommend. They arent cheap but they def get the job done.
