Re: [T3] dark side stuff that might get lighter...



Well our type 3's are the only ones with 2 stage cooling fans, so you may
have an easier time getting air into the engine with that as the T3 cooling
system doesn't need forced cooling air induction

I think this is the key behind why my 2056 wont keep the oil cool on the
highway, the squirrel cage cant "suck" enough to bring the air in from the
side vents.

Subject: [T3] dark side stuff that might get lighter...

I'm not happy with the air supply for the t1 engine in the mid-engine car.
I have been pondering the idea of going to type 3 cooling and having it draw
it's cooling supply from under the car.  it would almost be a forced are set
up (if there is airflow under the car)...  anyway, just seeing if anyone
knows if it will draw air from under the car or not.  thanks.
