May sound silly, but I’ve seen the electric fan installed incorrectly and instead of sucking air through the radiator it is trying to push the air forward, completely defeating its purpose. With the 4 core and a working thermostat, venting should be unnecessary.

Hey All

The Penny Marie knows she’s a bastard “Bastette” and lives up to her name!…She says it feeds her Rebel side and gives her the freedom to be WICKED!

Hey Elmo,

My mid 80’s British Coach Works has the vents routed out on the sides.  With the exception of one time (hot Summer Day and a slow radiator leak I forgot to check) where I ran hot until I topped things off, my engine seems to cool just fine.

My gut says venting (where the vents are supposed to be) may take care of your problem.

Good point. I like it.

Yeah man!

Glad to see you back, Crash!

We’ll miss you both for sure.

I regret that I will miss my first Carlisle event in the last 6 years.  Have fun guys.

Will not make Carlisle this year, Grand-daughter is in a science program with her final presentation that weekend.

Bill, I’m hoping you’ll be bringing the car this year?

not this year, but I’m looking forward to Carlisle. Audrey & I will stay over sat & leave sunday

I am a firm believer if the KISS method of building do not make it more expensive or complicated

Thanks for the advice, guys.

Field trip!
