Default DEWITT RAD/FAN COMBO

ED, I just knew you'd check this out! This is YOUR rad/fan package, shipped today. As I said, we've used this successfully on many 502BB crate motors and the owners tell me they never get over 185. The factory plate type aluminum radiators have much more cooling available than we ever thought because the engine driven fan just couldn't supply enough air at idle or slow speeds. With 2360 cfm we can cool just about anything and you don't have to modify a thing. You can use this with the factory shroud to hide the fan or just pitch it. Have fun :seeya

gkull and striker427, this package is what we offer for the 68-72 sb with the factory aluminum radiator. For larger radiators, such as yours, I would go with the spal dual 11" fans. These radiator cores are more rectangular shape and the dual package fits much better and covers 80% of the core.

I just got through installing Tom's dual Spal kit in my '73. Installation was easy, fit and finish were excellent, wiring was a snap, can't say enough! When the fans kick on it is really smooth-just a click and "whirrrrrr", sounds like the fans in my Escalade, classy! I thought about Flex a lite and some other setups, but I'm happy I decided to go this way. It's nice to get a part in the mail where everything is there, and it fits, and it works like it's supposed to, and it doesn't take a bunch of fabricating to get it right. Very cool! Thanks Tom!
:cheers:
