Installed mine about 4 years ago. Works very well. </div>

Also fitted baffles from the grille to the sides of the radiator which made an immense difference. </div>

<div>Here's the design and setup that I did for the BN1/2 float bowl cooling fan. It's been installed by both Geoff Chrysler and BN1 owner, British expat Simon Griffin of Illinois. Simon told me that the results have been absolutely fantastic, no more vapor
lock, or fuel boiling in the float bowls.</div>
<div><br>

<div>Here the blog article from Geoff Chrysler [Rightway Heritage Trimming] on his installation, #10 Install a Carburetor Cooling Fan...</div>

</div>
<div>These fans are high quality, UK made and are specific for performance or vintage automobiles. They are under $150 USD delivered to California. I was going to wire the fan to my light panel under my dash with a toggle switch, however Geoff came up with
a simple and elegant alternative... power is easily supplied as Geoff describes from the available side light connector just requiring a plug in to the side light connector and a ground..</div>

<div>Basic HS physics/Bernoulli, reducing the diameter from 4" to 2-1/2" increases the speed of the air, plus the adapter makes mounting a lot easier. It can all be removed in minutes.</div>

<div>Let me know what you think. I was going to supply, market and sell these as a kit, but I'd most likely lose money on the project. They are easy enough to build on your own.</div>
