LQ9 with Cam and AC, Which Rad and how much CFM will I need???
I know this has been talked about before but I'm new to PT and I need some good information.
I need help picking a new aluminum rad and which fans will work best for my application.
Going to be swapping an LQ9 with 600 lift cam into my F-body with Vintage AC
and I'm wondering what size fans I will need to adequately cool the engine with a
new 2 row LS swap aluminum radiator, or will I need a 3 row rad?
The engine makes about 430-440rwhp
I've been asking around and have been getting all kinds of recommendations.
Some say 2200-2500 cfm is good but others are telling me that I'll need 3000-3200 cfm
to cool the engine properly
I've read a large 16 inch single fan is good but others say I'll need to jump up to dual 12 inch fans
Been looking at Griffin, Entropy, RnD, Champion, Northern and Cold Case.
What has been working for you guys?
Please chime in.
