: Twin Fans for cooler
Mike L. 10-10-2006, 12:54 PM My '01-'05 Allison cooler will have twin fan option by the end of the year. Drawings are done and shrouds are being cut. This took a while, but it had to be right and it had to retro to previous coolers sold. Fans will be supplied by SPAL. I think this will help engine temps also.

Both auto and toggle switch.

Mike,
Will the 06 cooler not work with this fan? I was wanting to add the cooler when I have the SC Stage IV/1057 done by you. I am assuming the 01-05 is of a different design than the 06.

PM Mike or give him a ring and I'm sure he would be happy to discuss price with you. That way we can keep this thread more of a tech thread about the product instead of a FS add:)

No price yet on the retro. My '06 cooler is different and so far I have not seen the need for fans on it.
Red6t5Vette 10-10-2006, 09:00 PM Cool......can't wait to get out there to get the Stage IV and 1057.
THAMAX 10-11-2006, 05:39 PM so these fans will push right?
Mike L. 10-11-2006, 06:55 PM so these fans will push right?
Yes, the fans are pushers.
THAMAX 10-11-2006, 08:22 PM mike so what kind of cfm's are we talking about hear and amp draw to?
LTChip 10-11-2006, 08:26 PM Some ??s...
Photos?
Temp numbers? (tranny and engine before and after tests?)
Amp draw?
I didn't realize there was a need for these. Are they for heavy towing conditions?
I also thought that other attempts at electric fans in the cooling stack were determined to be useless as they draw more power making the net cooling effect negligable. What is different about this set up that would make it a net benefit?
Thanks
Mike L. 10-11-2006, 10:27 PM There has been no testing whatsoever because the product is not built yet. It will be shortly. I will have info on amp draw and cfm when I have one in hand and on a truck. We have been using a slightly smaller dual fan cooler ( 5 rows shorter ) in other applications with great success for quite a while. This setup with my cooler ( 5 rows taller ) will work just fine. I am bringing this out for the hardcore towing trucks and '05 overheaters. I have tested a 300cfm 7" single fan on my cooler ( without shroud ) with so so success on an '05. Chisuzu ( Scott )was my tester for that one.
THAMAX 10-12-2006, 01:23 PM sounds great mike keep us updated when you get your testing done
Lennart 10-12-2006, 05:05 PM ... Mike keeps coming up with new products you just can not afford to not have .... your phone will keep ringing ):h
ARICO100 10-12-2006, 06:18 PM like this?? from mikes suggestion
they work like a charm 2.8 amps total pull. will cool down but take a long time. if put on before at 195 keeps it there. the hard part is the tran pan bung....:ro)
