You can easily fit a puller fan to a 1275 car by changing out the radiator
surround to one from a later 1500 car. The 1500 is a longer engine, so the
factory had to move the radiator forward. You can also increase the
radiator size by having the tanks from a 1275 soldered to a 1500 radiator
core, adding about 20% more cooling area.
