they just don't flow the same amount of air, using cheaper motors etc. Kenlowe and Spal pour a lot into R&D to get the most power from a given size. I suppose anyone can stick some blades on a motor, but to then optomise it takes time skill and money.

not being cheeky but is it wired up correctly?
as if the 2 wires are the wrong way around the fan will turn the wrong way and wont blow like you said and wont draw the warm air from the rad?
just in case mate, tell me to shut up if thats the 1st thing you did
