For everybody out there running a GT style cooler, would you mind posting a few photos of your cooling setup and fans?

Currently re-routing my system to use a SETRAB type cooler (example here: Patrick Motorsports Website) however I don't see any reference to fans, and it doesn't seem as though it's an option to purchase.

Also, appreciate any 'pointers' in the right direction when it comes to vendors that might have similar products / solutions. Thanks in advance for your help!

Same with my 3.2. When stuck in traffic it would get hot. I installed an in-line -12 fan thermostat from summit racing.

Patrick use to sell the fans that fit perfect on his setrab cooler. I bought the same ones from Amazon. I have the part number some where. I installed a relay with the thermostat. Never have to worry about it over heating. Like a modern car the fan comes on and stays on until it cools down.
He used to sell the fans separately
