Hey all, I DO NOT want a new radiator, or water-pump,

but,


I would like to know if summit or any other place sells clip-on fans that would attach to our radiators for extra cooling. You know, like additional fans....

Also, does the royal-purple coolant stuff really help lower temps???

 

in their tests, it only lowered it 28* with straight water (not good on the street)
it only lowered temps 6* when used with 50/50 mix...
not worth the 15 bucks imo.

 

I used the Purple Ice with 50/50 coolant in my Thunderbird SC... it did made a noticable difference on the temperature gage. That car is supposidely known for cooling problems because on the SuperCoupe they made the radiator smaller to make room for the intercooler.
I cant really say what it'd do for an S197, but i do know from experience that it works... well, it did untill my backyard radiator patch job failed and everything leaked out

 

what about elecric cooling fan. doesnt that free up like 10hp to the wheels too? idk if makes it any cooler tho.

 

We have an electric cooling fan...
