Yes, I believe these are. However, the OEM fans have a very nice shroud. OEM fans are designed more around sound and performance and they leave a bit on the table. I can assume the SPAL units likely outflow the OEM units fan to fan, the SPAL units also pull more amps.

This kit you are potentially offering will not come with a shroud per your previous post but I believe you did state that these are not low profile fans and it sounds like you have less pressure drop with this thinner design (thus increasing the flow through the AC core?).
What affected performance hit (or not) should we expect on the A/C from this setup at low speeds and huge ambient temps (110+F)?
Maybe I'm trying to make this thing do something you're not after? I know you're trying to maximize flow at high speed track conditions, but I live in AZ and even driving back and forth to the track I want my AC to work as well as possible.
Love the products you keep pushing out. Thanks for offering another well thought out piece to the community!

I noticed slightly hotter a/c at low air speeds. Not enough to make me uncomfortable but it definitely is cooler once you get above 30-40MPH.
If you're after a/c function, especially at idle, a shroud would be a very wise choice.
Thanks,
