If you are going to mount something under the floor, duct the air from under the car up through the "cooler" - then vent it either back under the floor or out of the boot lid. Trying to force air back into the airstream under the floor is a no-no

The only problem with electric fans is that they are designed to only be on for short peroids of time so running one continously on long journeys could cause them to fail? https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel

how many times is this topic going to come up? many people (inc keith calver) say you cant have a side rad and no mechanical fan but with an electric fan as it will run too hot.
