Brooklands/Motolita sell a twin fan kit for $208. It includes mounts,
thermo switches, motors, fans etc.

By the way, I don't think that you should worry too much about the
HP rating of fans ("This fan will cool a 400HP engine" etc). If you
are *actually* generating 400HP with your motor, you are probably
travelling quite fast. I that case, the ram-air effect through your
radiator is probably making the air faster than the fan can blow!

What is the CFM rating on the fans and who sells the kit? I am looking
for a good fan set-up to install this spring in my Mustang along with a
new 4 core aluminum radiator. I'm not sure whether I should go with an
electric or clutchless fan though. I have a Paxton supercharger and I
have to have a fan set-up that will fit.
