I think you have stuck too much stuff in front of you radiator anyway. Aren't fans ineffective, be that clutch or electric at anything over 80kmh?

F1 cars dont run them.....

Prove me wrong buddy. :P

Due to it's size the stock fan flows massive amounts of air and is very efficient as there are no electrical losses.

I recall reading that your fan flows ~950cfm of air

Each thermo on a PM35 flows ~750cfm.

I know you like maths, so I'll let you figure it out :P

Also, keep in mind that the thermos are only drawing current when they are on...

I'm not sure the maths is quite right there Cam. Anecdotal evidence puts a decent clutch fan at around 2800-2900 CFM @ 2400RPM.

So that will smoke a pair of thermos at anything other than idle.

If you would like me to tell you I think its the best idea ever, and you should really do it... I still wont. :P

But seriously try it out, I would like to see the shroud design you come up with.
