Two problems with the 'use the donor vehicle cooling system' -

a) no donor vehicle, as the Jeep came this way (to me).
b)the space available in a wrangler is much narrower than in a camaro.

Other (side) issues:
the camaro that is donating the replacement 305 is getting a 400HP 350, so it needs to retain a cooling system - since the stock 305 was about 180HP, we may need to improve the cooling system on the camaro as well.

There must be a formula for this stuff...
X HP = Y BTU per RPM or Hour or...

X sq in of rad at Y CFM airflow = Z BTU dispersal

The GM engineers, etc, all went to school to do the math, so the math must exist someplace....must search more.


Streets - the XJ (llke the comanche i had) has a rad about 30" wide. The Wrangler (YJ or TJ) has maybe more vertical space but much much less horizontal space so dual elec fans (my preference) won't physically fit. Well, 8" ones might
