someone actually told me average flow rates of thermos and mechanical fans and the mechanical fans flow HEAPS more so if any doubt over cooling ability stick with a mechanical for sure

of also heard people say adding a shroud made a huge diffrence too, was the 120y one an easy fit?

i recon if ya gunna have a thermo fan you should make it suck air from the front of the car. cause if ya gunna have it sucking air from the engine side like blowing the air is already going to be warm from the engine heat.

mate you will find like someone already said that properly wired fans either blow from the front or suck from the back, as if it was the opposite when you are driving the fan would be doing nothing and the wind blowing through it while driving would cause the fan to go backwards and you would find you would burn out fan motors very frequently

Yeah, I used a radiator from a B210. It was bigger than the 1200 radiator, but bolted right in. The shroud came with it and fitted perfectly on the radiator and to the stock 1200 fan.

with my 1200,the fan was ahead of the radiator because there wasn't enough room between the radiator & the water pump,& i couldn't cut the radiator support panel due to club car rules.yes,it definitely was a fan off an n12 pulsar.in the end,i just gave up on the idea,& sacrificed the 2 or 3 horsepower the stock fan was using.
