Cool thread!
Hello !
That's a real shame Jake. Maybe the 911 fan needs to meet the T4 engine with a twist on old ideas? Why not use the 911 fan and custom fan housing/ ductwork/ tinware and flaps, possibly even controlled by a T1 thermostat to blow the oilcooler and/or waste? A cold engine needs no cooling and warming engine needs less than a hot engine. Needless to say it would have aesthetic issues, but if there is plenty air, why not harness it better? Is that so mad? IMO T1 aircooling is the most complicated area of the VW Beetle. The common (or garden) 911 cooled T4 is as simple as the rest of the car. Form and function again. As a graduate Engineer, I understand nothing but 'Control and Response' is EVERYTHING!!! Matt
