[QUOTE="alex4057, post: 324613, member: 2110"] that relies upon fitting a smaller bottom pulley to your bus, something that has always been frowned upon, John 63 ragtop does know his stuff and am not arguing against his views, just that that is applicable to a hard driven street/strip bug not a bus. with a bus on long journeys you'll not be pulling 8000rpm EVER, you'll be lucky to get over 4000rpm, this then halves your fan speed and will be likely to cause over heating. I know Mark from autotechniks is going to be experimenting with bottom pulley sizes and therefore engine temps on his next engine, but personally I'd always be tempted to errr on the side of caution rather than risk over heating.
