I also have a Kenlowe electric fan fitted (no mechanical fan), controlled by
a thermostat linked to the top radiator hose. During most use, the fan
doesn't comes on except when I'm stuck in stopped or very slow moving
traffic on a hot day. If the situation persists for half an hour or so, the
engine will eventually get so hot that I have to turn the engine off or pull
over to let it cool down. In the last ten years I've only been in that
situation once, so it really hasn't been an issue.

Mine also has an electric fan and no engine-attached fan.
Unfortunately though, whoever wired it, has it come on as soon as you
turn the key to the first position, not controlled by a thermostat as
you would think.
No overheating problems so far, but it hasn't been all that hot here
since I got the car either.
 
I'll check tonight to see if I can make out the manufacture and all
that.

Hi all,

I noticed on Tad Todd's ex car (now for sale at Wirewheel, Inc.) that 
the engine fan has been removed and a radiator fan installed.  Most 
likely controlled by a thermostat.  Has anyone else done this??  

If Tad is lurking around maybe he can provide us some info on the 
mfg., install, cost, etc.

I have no overheating problems now but it would be nice to do away 
with the fan (less work for the engine).

Victoria British sells a kit in either 10" or 12" size.
