I recently switched my factory radiator core to an aluminum fluidyne core on my '66 Mk1A Tiger. The core is approximately 1/4" thicker. The factory 6 blade fan has a spacer. It will fit if I omit the

The factory fan has four blades... so you're using a PO-installed fan. The ideal fan front-to-back location for any fan is such that about 1/2 to 2/3 of the blade is rearward of the shroud lip, but y

The stock Tiger fan does not have a spacer and I am running a 6 blade fan without a spacer. The fan should be at least and inch away from the radiator and you need to be sure it does not hit the ste

More flow is not always better like in removing the thermostat and getting the opposite result desired to much flow can cause heating problems. Some restriction in flow is needed to cool correctly. C

This is from the Stewart Components tech pages: A common misconception is that if coolant flows too quickly through the system, that it will not have time to cool properly. However the cooling system

I have often had the same thought. I would assume in an ideal situation the engine and radiator are matched, as well the fan size/speed properly regulated for a near constant temperature regardless

On the cooling....sure we have a crowded engine bay, small radiator and fan and a V8, but this can't account for all of the troubles. Look at the modern cars! I mean so crowded that you can't see any

Hi Tom, You should just turn over to your son whatever notes you have up to this point and let him design the tiger duct system. He already sounds like he is qualified. Bob

One thing MOST modern cars have is a chin spoiler, creating a low pressure area behind the spoiler right at the bottom of the engine bay. This would tend to suck out a lot of the hot air that has pas

The big difference is testing. I had a '61 E-Type coupe and that was like a slow cooker on a hot day. All I needed were some green apple or hickory chips on the exhaust pipe and the numerous air leak

My best friend and I raced Western Grand Nationals for two years. On some tracks we had to use a metal disc with different size holes to restrict flow to keep from overheating. These disc were provid
