Overheating annoying, switching to dual e-fan
Alright, so after the beginning of summer with nothin but a hot 4.0, I have FULLY decided on a dual setup. I need some help. I heard yanking to dual setup out of a Dodge Neon works.. anyone agree?
Otherwise, I found a 3 fan system on ebay.. I dunno if it is good or not. Keep in mind that I plan on installing a 2 row rad later on down the road.
So basically, what is the best setup to use and how do I wire it so it cuts on at 215 and off at 210?

During my recent rebuild (700 miles on rebuild) I put in a 3 core, even with the AC on, sitting still 98* out it would not go over 206* and thats with a mech fan and a elect. I have it hooked to a computer and even on the trail I have only seen 207 one time. (Standerd Trans)(Magna Flow exhaust).

This is the three fan one I found. $250 bucks, 3300 cfm total, 15 amp draw. I dont think rad included. I still wanna see what people say about the Neon setup though. Either way I want a 2 row rad and dual (or trip) e-fan setup.

Well its just hear lately with summer the temp messes with my engine. Going down the highway, Im ok. As soon as I hit a stop, the needle creeps up and then eventually driving wont get it back down. Luckily the highest it's gotten to on my rig is the last white line and stayed around there.. no red yet. I think Im gonna go with this kit. Hell, if it keeps it cool with 3300 cfm with that low of an amp draw, Im happy. Plus it said it makes the A/C run cooler too... and Im a big guy.. I hate the heat
