For the 1500 engine, what is the conventional wisdom regarding the factory
fan clutch? Mine is failing and I see where some recommend replacing the
water pump/fan clutch and fan with the solid pump and fan from the 1971-74
Spitfire. I read that the UK Midgets all use this setup and I like how that
solution should be much more reliable but I am concerned about the possible
downsides. Is it much noisier than a working fan clutch? Is there a power
loss? (I don't think I have a lot of power to spare!)
