I thought he did discuss electric fans though when I spoke to him he wasn't
a big fan of them? Remember though his main experience was with the
transverse engine A-series in the mini which had a harder time keeping cool
than the
Spridget (with a standard radiator).
Electric water pumps are a fairly recent item to become available for the
A-series engine. Note that the current edition of his book was published a
decade ago. My own view is that there are better things to spend money on
than
an electric water pump to make a car go quicker.

Hello everyone, as I said I wouldnt make any more posts until I read Vizard.
Task complete, and I have learned a whole lot. I still have a few questions
that Vizard didnt address. He doesnt address electric waterpumps, I was
wondering why... having an electric water pump would reduce drag, thus
allowing for more power, anyone have any ideas? Also going along with this
idea, why doesnt he recomend an electric fan?
