So when your radiator cooling fan comes on it's not going to pull any air thru the heat exchanger with all the other free air around for it to suck up and the condencer being so close it probably does a little blocking itself. I agree with you though, the fans will block a little at highway speeds, but probably not much. The main thing I was chasing after was to get the temps down at slow speeds that's when you want more power anyway or sitting at idol, you know, like a drag strip

. Running down the road at 50 or 60 MPH isn't when you may need that extra juice anyway IMO. The main reason I'm installing the temp gauge is to see just how much cooler the car will run at slow speeds with and without the fans.
Oh, and thanks for the compliment Jody

.
Let us know when its all finished up. Defintitely interested in your actual results via the temp gauge.
