I might have to check into these....If they flow more CFM, I might need to get a set over my LT1 fans. So, could I run these off my Flex-a-lite Adj. Thermostat?

i would think you'd want to run a relay to both and use a fan controler to run them. that picture is for the half ton 05', but i'm not sure all which models it fits yet. working on it.

Naked - I'd recommend the DCC fan controller if you're in the market for a bran new unit.

Guys - Anyone know how the fans operate? Does the VCM control each fan individually like the LS1 motors, or is it more or less wired parallel like the Flex setups?
