Just joined when searching for tips to improve cooling on my 1953 MG TD. I've owned the car for 2 years now and it's running great but gets up to 90 deg C on warm days when climbing hills...
I'm now retired but have owned a number of British cars over the last 45 years and still have a soft spot for them.

Welcome B, do you have mechanicle or electric fan.
Click to expand...
Just the original mechanical fan. I'm trying to source a 13" Maradyne "Texas Twister" here in Aus to give a bit of extra air, otherwise a 7 blade 13" MGB fan if I can confirm it'll fit bolt PCD.....
Not much room in front of the radiator for an aftermarket electric pusher fan...
 
Take a look at the Hayden 10" electric -

Hayden Electric Fan Kits - Cooling System - MG TC, TD, TF | Moss Motors

<P>These fans may be set up to run in either "pusher" (in front of the radiator) or "puller" (behind the radiator) configuration. The 10" fan requires a clear mounting area of at least 10 5/8" x 11 1/8", while the 12" requires at least 11 1/2" x 12 1/2",

You might want to call or email Moss for fitting details. > Moss Motors Help Center - Submit a support case (Step 1) <
