In the quest for a cooler running Tiger, many of you have shown an interest in a no longer available 6 bladed Ford fan. Similar ones have been suggested and identified and seem to possibly work......

This sounds interesting. But I have to ask the obvious question: How far forward, if any do these fans protrude past the end of the water pump shaft?? Can you tell from the picture? Most of us with

Sounds like a good idea to me. Might just be worth ordering one to see how it compares to the six blade (no longer made) Ford blade I dropped a hundred bucks for. Thanks Bob. May be worth thirty buc

Bob, I can't tell much from the picture in the cataloge except that it looks about the same as a Ford (and many others) factory fan. Wish I could be more help. Bob

Regarding the restriction of the thermostat; restriction is more-or-less proportional to length divided by area. You can't compare areas of radiator opening with thermostat because the length of the

So nice to hear your clear and concise description of these issues. I would like to add a little to your discussion of pressure and flow in the radiator. When the water pump is not turning, the pres

Sorry for the confusion. Of course I was referring to "inlet" and "outlet" with respect to the radiator. I guess most people probably reference with respect to the engine instead. Guess I need to tu

In the absence of flow, the pressure is equal everywhere. Since there is essentally no flow to the header tank, then I believe the pressure there will be (nearly) the same as at the radiator. This n

Something's a bit off in this explanation. The guy's pump is running slower, so he gets higher temperatures. Makes sense so far. But drilling holes in the thermostat cures the problem, by allowing so

OK, I'm confused. How is it that the cooling system can tell which side = the radiator the pressure cap is on and why would it care? The pressure cap does not exist unless it opens and then, on my sy

The problem seems not to ly with water flow nor incoming air. I thing the problem is getting rid of the hot spent air from the radiator. I don't have a tiger but I do own an Alpine S1. I am installin
