RE: cooling issue

[Rich Kinsley <rlkinsley@xxxxxxxxx>]

You know I have the same issues. My car has plenty cooling capacity but 
the airflow was lacking. I have a seven blade 18" flex fan but I was 
lacking a shroud. Yesterday my friend, retired sheetmetal worker,  made 
me a beautiful mirror stainless shroud. It's not installed yet but I'll 
finish it off today. I think it'll be just the right thing.
