Hi Norman

I have two 1100 cfm cooling fans placed in front of the radiator pushing air backwards through the radiator, I thought that this would help to shield the radiator from impact damage, keep the fans out of the hot air gas stream and also keep the exit air from the radiator less turbulent for its passage over the car. I run a 351 V8 and have not had any over heating or front lift problems.

Regards

Chris
