Default Radiator and Fans
Has anyone upgraded their radiator and or electric fans? I was just wondering what would need to be done in order to pull that off.

I'm also wondering if anyone's replaced/upgraded? I'd like to get a slimmer fan set-up since my headers make a little contact with my current fans.

Justin, get a set of fans out of a 3.5 twin cam intrigue, the shine is a bit bigger so needed a little more clearance, if I remember right Brock said that it's about an inch thinner and clears the headers
