You always want to draw cool fresh air from the outside of the car through the radiator. The idea cooling setup appears to be a larger radiator from a late model Spitfire, an aftermarket large electric fan on the outside of the radiator pushing air through the fins, and removing the original fan attached to the water pump. A thermostatic switch (or solid state adjustable) to control the electric fan and you're in business. As many times as this has come up with different versions of fans and such, I'm surprised nobody hasn't come out with a cooling upgrade kit with a late model radiator, hoses, and the proper electric fan and hardware. --------------------- This message has been sent by Dan Canaan, aka Flinthoof.
