[fastvair] Re: <VV> Fans and air flow

The added air flow will raise the blower HP a little, but the lower engine  
temps will MORE than make up for it!

Also, as several people have stated, the fins should be cleaned  up to 
minimise the obstruction to air flow; this probably lowers the HP  
requirements of a 
stock fan also.

No, sorry,  Scotty!

Deflashing and minimizing the obstruction to air flow RAISES  the horsepower 
the fan requires. Look at the hp/flow data in the SAE 140C  report for 
details.
