Ed,

I don't have a qualified suggestion on the radiator because my SPF is different than your CRII. But I do have a suggestion on a fan for you that should bring a smile to your wallet and a controlled temperature to your engine.

The 94 to 98 Lincoln MarkVIII had a electric fan that pulls more air than any aftermarket fan you can buy. It has two speeds and moves 5000 cfm on high and I believe 3800 cfm on low. The fan can be bought out of a junkyard for $30 or so. I believe the 94-96 cars had only a 3800 cfm unit and Lincoln upgraded them to the 5000 cfm units in 97 and 98. Be sure to use robust wiring and relays to feed it because it can pull north of 50 amps when it grunts.

Good luck on your build. After you choose let us know how it works out.

Ed
