Hi Merv,

I have read every thread relating to these fans and it appears that providing you mount them correctly, with the motors to the front of the car and the fans closest to the radiator, they work fine and don't impede air flow. They are actually designed to suck the air into the nose. A fair majority of owners who have them fitted, wire them up separately to their normal large fan so they can switch them on at will.

In my opinion, their major attraction is 'appearance.' I reckon they look tough and am disappointed that they won't fit my RMC. They work best with a vertically mounted radiator e.g. Classic Revival.
