Mike,

Sorry to have to disagree on this one.  On my non-standard Sprite with a
competition radiator, electric fan, by-pass plugged, modern high capacity pump
- I saw a reduction of 10 degrees with the big pulley when the engine was
doing about 3,000 rpm in 4th, may have been 5th.  I did back to back testing
in identical conditions.

This doesn't necessarily mean you are wrong as my engine and cooling system
are far from standard.  What I think it does mean is that it is worth giving
it a try - especially so if you have an electric fan.  I would add that once
you get over about 30mph the cooling is from the airflow and not the fan.
