I tried running 2 16" electric fans to begin with to maybe save a few HP. I bought them from different places (Auto Zone and JC Whitney). After replacing 2 fans in less than a year, I swithced back to a mechanical 6 bladed primary Flex fan just for reliability. I finally bought a Hayden from O'reilly with a lifetime warranty to use as my auxillary pusher fan for $130 (my car needs the extra fan).

My point is to be careful in choosing after market electric fans. I've found most to be unreliable.
