[6pack] TR6 Electric Cooling Fan

I am having overheating problems in stop and go traffic during hot summer
months in Louisiana.



I want to install an electric cooling fan for my 1976 TR6.



Moss sells a 14 fan kit for the TR6.   It appears to be a 14 Hayden 3690.



The TR6 radiator measures 16x16 1/2 and a 16 fan such as the Hayden 3700
or 3710 may not fit.



The dimensions for the 16 fan are 15 > x 16 >  and 13 7/8 x 14 > for the
14 fan.  There is plenty of room for the 14 fan.



Hayden also makes their 14 Ultra Cool # 3814.  It draws 28 amps on high and
13.8 amps on low.  I have a Bosch alternator that can handle the high
current draw. This may be more than I need.



The standard 14 fan draws 1050 CFM across a typical radiator and the  Ultra
Cool draws 1500 CFM on high and 1075 CFM on low. This may be more than I
need.



Has anyone used the 14 or 16 Hayden or other brand 14, 15, or 16 fan in
their TR6?



What were the results?



Suggestions?



Thanks,



Ronnie
