Hey Rob If you can figure out a way to do that with a roadster I'll make you my most bestest Friend!!!

Colin, man haven't seen you on here in forever. Hope you are doing well...
...you should just lay a towel down on the front seat and put both tires up there. I have had to do that before when transporting more than two tires.

tuna, let us know how that works for you.... I recall Woody trying several small fans on a LET HE and it didnt pan out... hope yours work for you....
What were your IAT's without them? With them?

Like 130 to 140 Les, but now temps are warmer outside and my average temp while cruizing is always 30 above outside temps. I don't get a lot of sustained high rpm driving like when you race however.

Re: ***** Deep
My IAT's run 20º over ambient but my H/E holds a gallon. It's almost always around 90º here so my IAT's run about 110º in the city. I'm still on the stock pump and sometimes think I should change it for more flow.

Re: ***** Deep
Didn't really make a difference
I can cool down my IAT real fast after parking, getting rid of the heat soak.
Would be good for waiting in line to drag race (Wed. night!) but that's about it. My IATs are always 25-30F above ambient. These fans are VERY loud!! Oh well, I only spent about $120 on the whole idea.

And finally, I've never seen the SC rotors/screws before; what is the pinkish color it has? Is that the coating we've heard about that Methanol is purported to eat up? BTW, thanks for your advice on my reservoir tank mount, I finally installed it today.
