Default Re: Fan

I dont have a shroud on my radiator and fan. The fan is mounted to the radiator in front of the radiator pushing the air. I typically dont turn the fan on until I am on the return road from the run. No need to run the fan while going down the track. I get the car cool between runs. Temp is usually about 120 degrees at the burn out. 160 after the run.

Damn, you run your car cold! I like to head for the water box at 160F.

Cool engine but I keep the oil warm with a pan heater between rounds.

Fan being installed on our 69 Chevelle. Dorman pn 620-951. Stock repop radiator. Really a great piece for us. Can hot lap the car without even stopping at the trailer and car won't get over 200F, on a hot and humid Michigan day.
