- I put a Texas Kooler on my 100 and immediately noticed some improved cooling benefits and was quite pleased. However over the course of some time--perhaps a year--things went back to the way they wer

- Wish I knew who made it, but about 10 years ago I bought a 6 bladed all metal fan from a show vendor. It transformed the temp problem to one where over temp is never a problem--and--no problems with

- I think Moss--and probably others--sell a 6-bladed version of the stock fan apparently was an original option for 'tropical' climates. bs ** Bob Spidell San Jose, CA bspidell@comcast.net ** _________

- If the blades look like the original Healey fan, but there are more of them, I bought one from Moss Motors in 1995 and 9 months and 2,500 miles later it threw a blade (two blades were missing when I

- The blades are riveted on and are squared off on the tips--not pointed. If it is one of the China ones, I must be lucky, because it has gotten LOTS of use and no signs of cracking or other signs of d

- Why bother with these half harted solutions and risk damage to your radiator or, even worse, your bonnet. Fit a thermo switch controlled electric fan fitted to the radiator shroud, not the core, and

- The blades on my Chinese fan were riveted on also, and shaped exactly like the original blades. As I recall, there is nothing on the fan itself that indicated Chinese origin, but there was a "Made in

- You are all treating symptons - you need to address the causes. I ran a stock but fully restored 100-Six, for 10 years and never experienced any overheating. Overheating is merely the visble sympton

- Basicly you are correct, if you drive the way they did in the 50-60's. Many classics have marginal cooling systems that work well in normal conditions but change to modern busy town driving and it i

- Guys, as a typical Dutchman I went for the cheapest solution. Went to a Volvo scrapyeard and bought a nice yellow plastic 5-blade fan for a few bucks. Had to drill suitable holes, but that's easy in
