Bill said that he was unable to run the a/c in traffic with his 16" -
he chose it over the 18" because it had a higher cfm rating. Maybe
the 2x12 would work better - or a 16-18" with two slim12's between the
radiator and condensor?

So does this imply that there is actually a new computer available for
the
'97-'98 models now? Last I had checked (8 mos ago) there was no such
thing.
Where can I get more info on this?
I'm also looking to install an electric fan on this beast, but wanted
to make
sure it'd be able to handle any future upgrades I may wish to add
(blower here
I come)....I know Summit sells a Perma-Cool fan in 16" and 18"
varieties, but
would it be better to go with 2 12" fans instead? My mech.
engineering
friends tell me that CFM is pretty useless unless you know something
about the
pressure drop at 0 flow, and the characteristics of the radiator;
neither of
which I have any info on, so what's the best bet? Just go with the
motto
"bigger is better"?
...Now that the rain is coming to the Great Northwest, it's time to
retire the
Harley and start working on the Dak again...
