Cooling question - airflow - design

Did the original setup have a mechanical fan? If so why recreate the wheel? Go back to stock.

Yes it did.

And good point. Not sure why I didn't think of that!!

Chop chop!!

Maybe I bought the wrong water pump?

it really sucks. i wish i could of kept the double pulley straight blade belt driven fan, but that's no longer an option.
Maybe I’m confused here. I thought you said the stock mechanical fan was no longer an option?
