Ron, they suggest you reverse the fan blade because (I think you'll find) the fan's blades are slightly curved (like an airfoil) and for optimal flow you want them facing a particular way. If unsure

One thing no one has mentioned so far regarding the benefits of an electric fan conversion (on a TR6 anyway)...you get a distinctive mechanical whine from the engine, especially at >4000rpm. The mech

You will get even better cooling if you were to remove the belt driven fan all together. When the electric fan is on with the mechanical you will get a turbulance that slows the air through the radia

I would expect it to run hotter, and get hotter quicker, that is not nessecerayly a bad thing. When you fans cut in though, you find it stabelise at a happy parodox. Maby you should lower the tempera
