[QUOTE="rrpederson, post: 15669400, member: 36898"] Like most things in the car hobby, this one upgrade won't have the huge benefit alone. I just installed one in my Cobra yesterday. That will make two installs I've done. I put one in the last turbo cobra I had. Anyway, you have to attack the problem from more than one angle. Slowing the build up of heat, and also removing heat. If both of your angles of attack are effective, then your car runs cool in the worst of street driving conditions. I can't offer much insight on the road racing side of it, but if you need help getting your car running cooler on the street or want info on installing a Mark VIII fan feel free to PM me. Oh, one more thing, I bought both my fans from a seller on Ebay that goes by the handle GTpitcrew. The fans they have for sale are absolutely top notch quality. They hand pick only the best running units with the best condition brushes in the motor. The thing about the Mark VIII fan, is while they are highly effective and sought after for this quality, they were designed by ford to be somewhat disposable. The motors are riveted into the shrouds and were not designed to be rebuilt. So this is why the brush condition is very important. Thats why i selected GTpitcrew.
