I installed a 800CFM electric fan in front of the radiator in my
otherwise stock Tiger. It's wired to a dashboard switch, rather than
a thermostatic setup. It does basically NOTHING to aid cooling. At
idle, it seems to increase the flow from the stock fan a bit, but if
you blip the revs up, the stock fan produces far more airflow than
this thing ever could. So all I use it for is cooling things off
after I shut it down. The next time the radiator comes out, this fan
will probably be removed.
I don't know how many CFM you would need to make a difference, but
it's a lot more that 800.

I only assume they should work on a Tiger since I don't remember seeing any.
Anybody else running electric fans on their Tigers?
