I finished installing the (trimmed down) red 13 blade TR6 fan as used in
later GT6's. I had to make the adaptor which is why it took a while. I
took the car to work today and all seems well, no noticeable or increase in
vibration. It hasn't really been hot enough to see if it will help the hot
running when idling or slow speed stop and go traffic, but I figure if BL
did it back in 71 or so it was because of ever tightening emission controls
and subsequent strain on the already marginal cooling on GT's, so this
summer we'll see if it was worth the effort, I have high hopes -
