I basically went for the most cfm's I could get. I had a custom fan made
"largest motor (width and height) for the area and biggest diameter swirl
fan". I purchased mine from Scott's Manufacturing and it's rated at a
little over 2400 cfm. Required a larger alternator and you can really see
the voltmeter jump when it kicks on. I have mine set on a temperature
sensor with a manual over-ride. I'm also running a Desert Cooler 4 core
triple flow radiator.
