I'd like to know more about how you're gonna make this work.
My 220 had an electric fan that was strapped to the front of the AC condensor and controlled by a little switch under the dash. The original owner would manually turn it on when the car started to get really hot (down in texas). I removed the fan when I removed the AC condensor. I was going to install a flat motor fan from my 86 740. Sadly the old flat motor is seized up so I'll have to find one from a junkyard to play with.

I really want to put a secondary fan back on the car. I had a very "hot" experience caught in traffic a couple weeks ago and I had to turn on the heater and blower to cool the motor down to the green. I think a second fan in a great idea.

So, long and short. Good idea, I've seen it before, but only with a manual control. please share what you've done when you get it figured out.


Also... they say that a fiberglass wrap around your exhaust manifold will allow the exhaust gases to get out faster and allow your pistons to work a little less harder to pump the gasses out. This was covered in the Heat/Rust/Noise in VW's article (http://www.shagadelic.org/VW/info/gmbulley-soundproof/intrir1.html).
I picked up some wrap from a local performance shop, but I may wait until I get my engine rebuild going and use it on the new setup.
