Nice one! I have fitted thermo fan in front of radiator with temp activated switch. I have removed engine fan. No overheating issues since I fitted heat shield to protect webers

[twozeds]

Did you mount the fan to the radiator core or make up some mounts?

[Alan Wood]

Through the radiator - not had any problems

[twozeds]

Did you use metal bolts with large washers or plastic tie-like thingies? What brand of Fan? I have bought a couple of Chinese ones from Supercheap and not sure re their reliability.

[Alan Wood]

I just used the plastic thingies with a Supercheap thermo myself - bit noisy but it works - I am going to get a quieter one, but will probably have to pay more
Cheers

The supercheap ones have crapy flow, huge power draws and are noisy. Other then that they still work better then a tired clutch fan or a fixed fan. I've used them extensively with the cheap thermo switches and only ever once had a problem which was the switch but I've always wired them up with an override switch.
