Stan,
Here's a potential solution to your fan switch question. Go to
http://www.revingtontr.com and search for electric fan. One of the hits will be
a stainless steel radiator pipe with a built in boss to take a thermostat for
the electric fan. They also sell the thermostat. I have a similar arrangement
on my TR4 vintage race car, and it is a very clean installation. It won't go
into the unused water pump port, but it will give you a better way to do this
than many other methods.
