DeWitts Rad/Fan Upgrade
72 vette, automatic and AC (not currently installed), will be dropping in 383 stroker crate motor in the next couple of months and was looking to upgrade to a Dewitt radiator and fan setup at that time. 
I have questions for those who have already done it:
I live in Central Florida, will the dual fan setup keep the car cool enough on those hot summer days?
What thermostat works best with setup?
Are any modifications required during installation?
When wiring fans should they be hot wired or wired through ignition?
Is there an indication light (fans on) in the kit?

I have the "Be Cool" radiator ... Two fans, two relays. 185 thermostats. My volt (amp) meter pegs out when the fans are on..Wired through the ignition. Works great... July 4th parades,100+ temps, they keep the water cool ...
