Electric fans and shroud recommendations

Even if the Wizard Radiator is higher efficiency to some effect (I don't know how we can quantify that), Even their $850 pusher fan setup isn't any better than a $30 OEM Contour fan setup from a salvage yard. The contour fan on the 26" radiator covers all but about 2" of the core and since it's a puller it's not blocking it when the fan is off and you're rolling down the road at speed.

If you can repurpose an OEM part they're usually better than aftermarket or aftermarket replacement because they were made in a plant with actual quality controls and had testing done to a spec to last 150k + miles in bad environments.

470hp engine here and a wild amount of headroom in cooling. I run a 180 Thermostat and it's running right on temp so long as its over 25 mph. Fan can keep it right in the turn on range for the low speed and it's so quiet you can't hear it with the hood shut.

In my opinion......repurposed parts look like **** on a car to be quite frank and although factory parts are better than cheap parts store trash they are NOT BETTER than high end parts that a person can purchase from whatever source he deems to be the best for his particular application. To quickly and easily prove your theory wrong what would fail sooner.....factory rocker arms or high quality like T&D or Jesel? How comfy would you feel with factory rods in your engine when you could have used high quality aftermarket pieces? Your argument has minimal at best merit.
