<VV> Corvair Fan

[JVHRoberts at aol.com]

Well, that would help, but according to my calculations, and the discharge  
air temperature, more air flow is the real answer. There simply isn't enough  
mass air flow rate to get rid of enough heat. no doubt, if one were to double  
the air flow, the engine would cool a LOT better. Perhaps less restriction 
would  help, but I have my doubts it would help enough with the stock fan.

No, not  just a better fan, but better finning with maybe more room between 
the  cylinders.  A less restricted head design would obviate the need for  
more fan performance.
