Sam,
I think (as somebody already sumed up) that the reason is because by
pushing the radiator forward in order to cram in the 6, Triumph found
themselves limited in the size of radiator that could be used. They did
the best they could and thickened the core, but it obviously was not
enough. Seems like a pusher fan mounted on the front would do wonders
for assisting in the GT6 cooling.
BTW, how's the database coming? Did you get the data I sent?
