Radiator Fans
What size fans have people put on their Viento Rads ? and did they go for the super hi spec Pacet with super CFM flows ? Thinking about going up to
this option to attempt standing temps. Also what do people think the wiring should look like as the Hi Spec fans have a real high draw (11 amps) x 2
Additionally thinking about shrouding the rear of the fans and ducting the blown hot air to the underside or out through the sides ? Any experiences
?

Not got to that stage yet but was thinking about Kenlowe 16 inch if it will fit
cmh 3330
amps 21
or possible a twin set up
Also planning to fit an oil cooler with a fan set to kick in when required - temp or dash switched.

I used 2 x 10" fans which fit perfectly on the rad. Wouldn't have thought 16" would fit as this would be taller than the rad, wasted
airflow if you see what I mean.
Cheers

Probably too big. I had to modify the shroud to get mine onto the front. That's why i'm interested in peoples choice of fans.
Pacet do a slim and a high profile, 10" however, the slim moves more CFM than the chunky one.

I've got two 12" fans. I had to make special fixing bars and brackets to fit them as they are almost too big for the rad.
In hindsight I would probably have been better off with two 10" fans that have a top spec in air movement rather than the average 12" ones
I have at the moment.
Cheers,
Dave
