And how does a non-running fan behind the radiator not block it? My Lotus and many other cars have an electric fan in front of the radiator, stock from the factory. I'm thinking of putting a fan on t

I recall that some early Land Rover Defenders had trouble with a too-close and too-flexible radiator fan which was mounted on the front of the radiator. When driving through deep water the fan could

The difference is that with the fan in front of the core, you are blocking a moderate portion of the core from ever seeing any air (in particular, the section behind the motor and hub). With the fan
