     I'm considering removing the fan and hub from my late '66 TR-4A and 
using an electric fan instead.  Advice on the list regarding this mod has 
been about 50/50 in the past.  (The concern is regarding dangerous 
crankshaft resonances above 5000 RPM.) Since I have the fan off now, I 
thought I'd ask again.
     The car is set up for autocrossing, but I want to use it for track 
days and driving school.  It has lots of old age problems which I'm working 
off, but hopefully nothing serious.  Low oil pressure at hot idle is the 
biggest concern.
      Thanks for the help.
