Member Contributer Cogswell Posted December 19, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted December 19, 2014 I bought a complete VTR motor/fan used just for the blade ($10 - what did I have to lose?), thinking I would swap the blade for the VFR's to reverse the flow. I briefly toyed with the idea of seeing if that fan setup would fit inside the right rad - I gave it up due the tight clearance between the rad and cylinder head. If it fit it would only be just barely. Anything that goes in there would have to be extremely slender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Q-Dawg Posted March 5, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted March 5, 2015 Funny, i was actually looking at those spal fans just a few weeks ago and wondering the same thing. I think they could fit / work fine at least on one side, but the biggest unknown for me would be the electrical load they would add to the system, as I didn't see the amp draw listed anywhere I looked.

Looks likes 4-6 amps depending on A-type(blowing) or S-type(sucking) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
