Default Easy question....do I need slim fans with a Fluidyne?

I need a radiator, and the Fluidyne ones are pretty well priced. But do I need aftermarket slim fans with it? Or can I reuse my stock ones?

If I need new fans, no Fluidyne for me. Aftermarket OEM copy here I come!

Usually the aftermarket radiators have more cores (more cooling power) and equal or less size in width. Do you plan on running turbo? If so, you will need to cut a piece out of each blade d the plastic guard with the stock fan on any radiator or go with the FAL fan which is alil pricey at $299 but is oh-so thin and good looking.
I bought a radiator new off a company on ebay for $132 shipped and has over twice the amount of cooling compared to stock and is about a 1/2 an inch thinner, been using it for 2 months and works great and installed in 20 minutes, the only problem I ran into was the stock radiator cap didnt fit and the overflow tube needed extending.
