Any thoughts on a fully shrouded radiator. (This is what I have.) A friend today said that if all the air passing through a radiator on car that's cruising at 60 or 70 has to pass over the fans, it'll actually slow the air flow down because the fans are at a contant rpm. Seems to me though that once you exceed the "speed" of the fans, incoming air pressure would accelerate the fan blades accordingly. I still need to do a stop & go test (next day or two)and see how she does there but none-the-less, I feel 200-210 is too high for high 70's low 80's day and casual driving is too much.

Where are the cooling gurus?
