Hello,
Am doing a frame off rebuild and intend to replace the original cooling fan. I purchased an early TR6 8-blade (blue) copy of the original yellow blade from a UK vendor last year. Probably the same source as the British Victoria item.
Has anyone installed such a fan, blue or yellow, using the original hub extension? I know Moss has the kit with a shorter extension but would prefer to use the original if there is enough clearance with the radiator. That being said, if you have used the Moss kit, would like to know how well that has worked.
On the other hand, TRF is ramping up to reintroduce the yellow fan blade but still lists an adapter kit for the yellow blade which does NOT use a shorter extension (just the bolts, bushings and tabs from what I can see). Has anyone used that kit?
Also, will be replacing the radiator with a Moss (no hole) version. My original has had it. Thanks.
Regards,
Walter
