Some add a mechanical fan, but since MGBs have been running around in =
desert states for 50 years it shouldn't be necessary except possibly =
under the harshest of conditions. People ad them here in the UK which =
seems ridiculous (especially at the moment ,,,), but then they could be =
covering-up a problem which should be investigated and fixed.
Whilst the factory thermostats were set to 90C, aftermarket types often =
have a variable control. This means that factory systems have a rise on =
the temp gauge before the fan cuts in, when many seem paranoid bout =
probably because they are used to modern cars which don't do that. So =
they set them to the stat temp to try and keep the temp gauge at a fixed =
point regardless of conditions.
The bottom line is that if everything is working as it should be, you =
shouldn't need additional cooling.
