[QUOTE=Burn N' Up]Other wise im gonna try cutting a few fan blades out of the flexalite and promote more movement there. I guess i'll find out soon enough. QUOTE]

Do that and sure enough the fans will be in an unbalanced condition and they will crap out shortly when the bearings go. Take a home desktop fan, break off a blade, turn the switch on and watch what happens. It almost sounds like the fans are running all the time which will impede airflow at highway speeds, maybe you should adjust the fan thermostat up a little.

Im here in kuwait and in the summer its usually over 120 degrees, heavy traffic conditions etc.
The way I got mine to run cool was to have a custom radiator made for my car with one more row in it. Ive had it like this for about a year and a half and its never gone over 1/3 temp no matter what conditions here and Im still using the stock fan. I was thinking of getting a perma cool to get some extra horses for the engine though but havn't done it yet.
