Been looking for replacement fans for the radiator for 88 model. No luck at all. The motors are fine but the Plastic fans are brittle and wobbled out.

Others have used a Taurus fan assembly. Bigger, single fan but I think it can be used as a 2 speed. Do a search, there a several posts on it.

I have just removed mine. The entire shroud and fans and such might be a little much to ship, but I could try to take it apart if you just needed the plastic fans?

Another option: 4th gen Z28 (got mine from a '93 or '94 w/LT1)
Dual fans, only needs trimmed for thickness at the trans line side, fits without trimming, but looks cobbled. Brackets are simple to make with common tools. Fans/shroud should be available for cheap almost anywhere.

I went with a slim 16" fan from Advance Auto. It's larger than stock. $65.00. Needed to have room for the GN Intercooler (pic taken in the mounting process)
Plan to put on the shroud to protect the ront of the IC and draw air from underneith using a smaller puller fan mounted on the backside of the IC.
