Has anyone tried one of these yet?

Hi Chris, Yes I have one for my car to provide cold air to the oil cooler.

I made a shroud to fit round the cooler with a 76mm duct down through the rear floor section in the engine bay. this has the in-line fan connected in on a manual switch. It works very well, although I have only 'bodge fitted' it recently and not had a chance to test it in really hot conditions yet.

I have some 'tidying up' to do round it but plan to do an article for the newsletter with some pix when it is completed during the engine transplant operation.

BTW, I got mine from GPR for about £25 - a real bargain.

Cheers

Tim
