I just bought this (can return it) to see if it will fit. There is no Taurus fan nearby so I went with this. It will cover the entire rad and the fans seem to pull pretty good.

Anyone out there retro fit something like this?
 
I doubt very seriously if the fans for a 120 cubic inch 4 cylinder are gonna provide ample air movement for your 5.0L. I'd return them and get something you know will move enough air. 3000 cfm minimum to be safe.

Saleen - wiring it on all the time defeats a big advantage of the electric - no current draw when it's off. And it doesn't need to be on at all when you're at cruising speed (30+ mph). Far and away the best way to control electric fans is the Delta Current controller. www.dccontrol.com It makes relays and switches seem ancient. HIGHLY recommended. Love mine.
 
I took twin Olds Ciera (V-6) fans off of mine that were a part of the original conversion. They didn't come close to moving enough air to handle the 5.0L with a/c in the southeast summers. I installed a fully shrouded dual 11" SPAL set up that moves about 2900 cfm of air and it works wonderfully.

Cooling is no place to take a chance or a shortcut as the consequences of a bad choice are often pretty big problems. As I said before, I can't imagine why anyone would think fans designed to cool a small 4 cylinder would be sufficient to meet the cooling needs of a V-8, but if you want to give it a try, go for it. It helps that you're up north and have lower average ambient temps to deal with. Do you have a/c? If not, that helps too of course.
