A-Snake is right on that if any big block Cobra came with dual fans it was an anomaly that a buyer requested special (can't think of one off hand) or possibly the SuperSnake may have come that way because of the extreme cooling demands of the supercharged engine.

At least on the earlier street cars the fan system was installed at SA using a Ford blower motor, added fan bracket, US sourced temp sender added to expansion tank, US sourced fan blade, Ford relay and wiring scabbed on alongside the AC harness. Later cars may have had some of that incorporated by AC, but it would have involved having US sourced components shipped over to the UK, which I suspect may have been cost prohibitive.
