Nope, your fine. Those fans cost $230 a piece... save the extra money and buy somthing else. Our trucks dont need anywhere near 8000CFM to cool them.

What CFM does the derale fans pull? As long as you have upwards of 4000CFM you will be fine..

At 8000 cfm, throw the v8 away and just drive it like an airplane.

Yep, your fine. 5000 CFM from the Derales is more than enough. Just from reading things, I think Derale is a much higher quality fan too.

It's interesting that they draw only 10.0 amps, while my 16's draw 19 amps.
