Nope. Dual fans were never offered on the comp or S/C cars from the factory. They came with a single fan mounted on a square bracket ahead of the radiator. But since they were essentially ineffective, many owners retrofitted their cars with a better set-up, which was often 2 larger fans. It was later realized that puller fans (behind the radiator) worked much better than pushers (ahead of the radiator) since the former moved air more effectively through the cooling fins, hence many have since been fitted with these as well.
