Does anybody have one fitted ? Does it do what it says on the tin,better cooling etc,?

I`m running a 1776 with full flow oil will it be worth the money,no over heating probs but notrun ti through the hot summer yet (hope for one this year).

My bug had a 1776 with full-flow and a deep sump (1.5 quart I think).

Before it was fitted the engine did run quite hot - especially if I booted it for long stretches along the motorway. After it was fitted I can't really say I noticed it getting as hot - but then again I never really took much notice of the gauges.

I guess it can't have been running as hot or I would have (or I'd like to think I would have!) noticed!

I have one one mine 1600tp engine, came fitted when i got the van, never had any overheating probs yet. Since havin the van we havnt had a good summer . Have been down to cornwall a few times and use it most weekends during warmish weather time.
It must do some good for the cooling, mine sticks out under the chassis line and gets a lot of air flow over it when driving along, mines stock height if that makes any difference.

Will try and take a pic if im hame b4 it gets dark.
