Awesome. Definitely going to use that radiator
And yes ideally the 2 fans would have a controller to activate them at like 182 with a 180 thermostat installed and have a manual on and off switch in the cab for when you need to control it.
I already have a glow shift gauge installed on my A pillar and my temps stay around 180-190 with a 190 thermostat. But like dusty said the heat sink is a big issue and temps do spike to near 205ish for me.
They also get higher (195ish) when I off road due to low speeds and low rpms so I think electric fans would be superior there.
I guess now finding the right fans and building a mount for them is the trick
