[TR] 1971 TR6 Cooling

[Harrymague at aol.com]

Hey, I have a 74 TR6.  In my rebuild I put an aluminum radiator plus  an 
oiler cooler.  I have the conventional red fan.  Since those two  mods, I have not 
had any of the cooling problems like you have.  In fact, I  had replace the 
thermostat with the cooler one and I am thinking of going back  to the 
standard.  FWIW

I have  done a complete body off restoration of my TR6 including engine  
rebuild
radiator rebuild etc.  Since completion I have driven the car  about 600
miles.  On very hot days 85 to 90F (that is hot here in  Toronto) idling in
traffic the temperature guage gets to about the three  quarter mark but has
never boiled over also at highway speed during this  hot weather the guage 
runs
above the centre mark.  I am considering my  options which I think would be to
instal an electric fan on the existing  radiator (infront of or on the engine
side of the radiator) or an aluminum  radiator with or without an electric
fan. I would really appreciate  comments from the list regarding this issue.
Thxs, Bob  Knapp.
