Alex Birtwisle Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 Does anyone know the diameter and airflow (in CFM) of the big R500 cooling/radiator fans 🤔 Cheers Alex S713UMY 1.8K Viper Blue and Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Birtwisle Posted September 5, 2003 Author Share Posted September 5, 2003 can't find a website for SPAL but can find people who supply the fans. Suck or blow 🤔 that is the next question  S713UMY 1.8K Viper Blue and Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Birtwisle Posted September 5, 2003 Author Share Posted September 5, 2003 Ooo-errr  I guess if you blow you will restrict the free airflow from the forward movement of the car. The problem with sucking is there isn't all that much room between the radiator and the ARB. S713UMY 1.8K Viper Blue and Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dino ferrana Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 I think the R500 fan sits in front of the radiator and blows through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooby dooby doo Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 yes it does. that is one of the disadvantages according to those with logging and experimental evidence... HOOPY R706KGU Hoopylight R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridgway Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 when did that fan become an R500 fan? I thought it was the fan fitted for the SLR race cars. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Birtwisle Posted September 8, 2003 Author Share Posted September 8, 2003 I think it officially became an R500 fan when I started this thread. I don't know what the SLR race car radiator fan looks like so it can't be one of those  S713UMY 1.8K Viper Blue and Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
