Wondering how many Cu. Ft./Min. of air it pushes.

I think CRH's point is that the fan isn't the restriction.

Capacity is measured 'free-air', so any actual # would be irrelevant behind a tight rad. The larger of the two is REALLY powerful.....

That's my way of saying "I don't know".

I found out who makes it, but they will not give me any details about it...

Yes they do. I could use them as a hair dryer now.
The stock radiator is very restrictive on airflow, as we found out after the install.
