Electric VS standard fan

If your radiator is old, it may not be working very well. Ditto for your water pump.

As mentioned, an electric fan creates a pretty major load on the electrical system. Also, a lot of electric fans don't move nearly the air that a flex fan does. Do you have room for a puller on the front?

If your car is an auto, moving to a separate tranny cooler may help some also.

Remember, water cools better than antifreeze, so maybe running less glycol in the summer would help too.

The water pump was replaced with an oem pump about 2k miles ago when i rebuilt the motor, but the radiator may be restricted even though i had it cleaned at the rad shop. I do have enough room in the front of the radiator to mound an electric fan or two, would anyone recomend running both electric in the front and regular in front?

Car is a manual, I run as close to a 50/50 mix as i could, any recomendations on a better cooling mixture for the summertime?
