YIKES that's not a good sign. JDL is normally a very good manufacturer. I'd reckon reaching out to jesse to see if anything can be done.

I checked the actual fans on my car and they're the low profile 900 CFM fans. So JDL might have costed me my previous engine which was over heating constantly and eventually dropped a valve.

It's safe to say there wasn't sufficient airflow to cool a turbo FA20 let alone a V8. I'm going to upgrade to 1800 CFM fans next just to be safe.
