    good, those Corrado fan motors weigh a ton, and they always pack in. much better off having 2 seperate fans, then it one decides to give up the ghost, at least you've still got the other.

    Going to run an override switch on the fans too.

    Getting a bit excited about getting it done now, it's been a long time since Feb when I last did a track day in the old thing.
