5.4 e-fan

How many CFM does it take to keep a 5.4 superduty from overheating?? Ive got a 16" 2000cfm fan and was wondering if it will be sufficient?
Thanks

I dont know if that fan by itself will keep things cool. I ended up doing one 16" 2300cfm fan and a 14" fan to go with it. That way it covers more area of the rad and so far it hasnt heated up at all.

Ya you need to cover more area........I thought they made a dual fan system.
Could of sworn I came across one on the internet by accident.

one 2300 is enough for my truck, but i dont regularly do heavy work with it. go dual 16s if you want to be able to run AC too

I dont know if this counts for the gas superduty but I know the diesel guys dont run e fans because they will not cool the engine enough to tow anymore then 5000 lbs
