Question Better Motors (higher output) for the radiator fans?

wondering if anyone has experimented with running more powerful motors for the radiator fans? seems like an easy and cheap upgrade and should improve cooling. I have a 200 amp alternator and my battery could easily handle the extra draw.

any ideas on improving the fan shroud as well?

The stock fans seem pretty good to me. Even in 100° heat, they can bring the engine temps down.

Griffin 3x1" core radiator and 2 after market fans of your choice that will fit.
If your DCR isn't over 9.1 that should work with 92 octane.
