Thanks for the reply Mark,

It surely is a good starting point. Was doubting about the fan myself, but maybe, considering the better airflow if the airco radiator is gone, the fan could be sufficient.
A better option woud be a fan i can place behind the radiator, or is it just as simple as switching the wires and running the fan in opposite direction?

Also... i am planning on using the complete rear end of the Cosworth (for the rear vented disks and LSD). Should be fairly easy to fit at first sight. But i can't seem to find a solution for one problem. The speed sensor. I believe the diff is 1,64. So there are no speedo gears to compnsate for it. Speedo is no problem, i am going for an aftermarket dash anyway. But that is not the only thing using the speed sensor.
If possible i would use my trip meter and cruise control. CC, i guess is no problem as it does'nt use the speed, but only the signal. It can't be a problem if it thinks i am driving 60 if it is actually 80. the only thing i can think of is that the lower speed limit for its operation is higher than normal.
But the trip computer does use the speed, does it? So it won't read a correct fuel consumption.
Are there any other functions i am not aware of, that use the speed sensor? I read stories about engines stalling if no VSS is connected. But i assume, if it gets 'a' signal, it if fine? Does'nt have to be the correct signal..?
