When sizing electric fans the higher the amp draw the better they have enough power to move the air ,6 amp fans are not much, Derale makes a good set with their high amp motors they will move the CFM as advertised but they are not real cheap . I found out the small low amp fans will not move much air in the heat and high altitude's when you need it the most. They were designed to have help from the front air flow not drawing air from a dead space like on a bus just take a look at the electric fans used on the Prevost and MCI now.

Buy 8 of those Bosch fans will set you back some big bucks ,8 electric fans replacing 50 hp from a engine driven fan has to cost

Don't quote me but somewhere in the $10,000--$14,ooo range. You'll need the upgraded Bosch alternator also😉

Now you can shave some bucs here. First the fans (not the toy ones) then obiously a custom shroud (s), wiring sensors, relays etc.

A radiators ability to cool is limited by an engines efficiency level as well as the operators ability to keep his/her foot out of the throttle when required.😮 Otherwise you're jus pissin' in the wind.
