The electric fan is absolutely the way to go. A cheaper route is to pick up a Mark VIII fan, and a thermostat on ebay. But that whole set up for $139 isn't a bad deal. (Amazing that I said that about LMR.)

Hmmm...I hadn't actually considered that you had a blower car. I might go the Mark VIII fan route, since the stock fox radiator really sucks *****. But if your radiator is in good condition, you really shouldn't have any cooling issues...Unless you're road racing it.
