    I use a spal 16" rated at 2360 cfm on a ProStreet 55 Chevy that has close to 600 hp & it runs right on the Tstat, even in traffic in summer.
    I use the same fan on my Deuce w/ 430 hp.
    I think the key is buying the most efficient radiator you can afford- not a fan w/mega cfm.
    I'd be looking at an aluminum rad like those from PRC. You only need the fan during slow driving & idling. At freeway speed, there should already be enough air moving through radiator to keep things cool.
    I have several friends w/blown motors in Deuces that have close to 800 hp. They use an aluminum rad & a Spal fan w/ no heating issues.
