Help Me Cool Down
I see what you mean. Forward speed overcomes the fan. My fan sits 1” from the radiator. I know that a fan or propeller works by reducing the air pressure in front of it and atmosphere then flows from high to low. So without a shroud it will still drop pressure from the surrounding area. I’m also at altitude so I have 1/5 less pressure and that harms radiator efficiency as well. I’m not sure if it will help my heat rise at idle unless I remove the shroud and get a big fan.
This is what I’m working with and the crank pulley. The small cap screw locks down the ignition wheel from rotating.
