Well, I had thought of the extra draw as well, but I figure the extra draw
would never use as much HP as the stock fan. I also have thought about
going with one of the lighter, aluminum flex fans to free up HP, but the
electric just seems like a cool idea. Now I might have some problems if I
went with power pulleys and the electric fan (with the alternator having to
work a lot harder to pull the fans also) but I figure my RT has the HD
alternator, so I might be OK.
My main question is what flow I will need. I have no idea what kind of CFM
my original fan is capable of, but expect the electric would need at least
that amount.
BTW, installed my 180 degree thermostat today (even if some on the list say
the engine produces more HP with hotter combustion chambers (kinda makes me
wonder why draggers allways want to cool down between runs though)) and the
gauge shows noticeably cooler.
