Don't you think it needs to PASS the same criteria as the $750  Electric Fan 
conversion  Test  by  Bob Helt / Ken Hand / Frank Parker FIRST????
QUOTE:
You must commit the following stipulations.

1)  Install the kit on a previously decent running Corvair engine. [CAR]

2)  Take photos along the way to show how it is done

3)  Write up an article for the Communique on "how to" and the results (see 
below)

4) Upon completion of installation, run some strenuous "Engineering Tests" 
"good faith" tests (good faith meaning you really intend to perform strenuous 

tests and complete the tests), collect data and provide results to VV and the 

Communique article. The idea of these engineering tests MUST be to try to 
find 
the cooling limits of this setup.

Data collection must include ambient temp measurements, documenting car speed 

and duration for the interstate test which must be at least 70 mph for 300 
miles. Head temperatures during these tests (instrumented would be best. 
Stock 
temp system is acceptable). Other stress tests as you might see fit.

Any takers?

Regards,
Bob Helt
