Pardon me for stepping on your post FJ, but in other words: you can only push so much of something through a fixed size opening before you can't anymore and you start to create problems. For example: its the same or similar problem with getting more air to flow through heads, manifolds; sometimes when trying to beat the system you can make it worse.

I don't know why Jake Raby reinvented the wheel with his DTM fan housing, when Porsche had already won that battle with the Type 547 engine fan housing. I think the DTM is interesting, but for the money he could have had a modified 547.

FJC

He at least started to do exactly that, but between the custom fans and multiple molds it would have ended up costing too much for anyone to buy. I'm sure he has made one or two...

I would still buy a T4 DTM without hesitation if I had a need and free$.

The only reason I don't have a DTM is Joe Locieros lead time was 6 weeks and I was leaving Portland. :roll:
Addendum to Newtons first law:
zero vehicles on jackstands, square gets a fresh 090 and 1911, cabby gets a blower.
EZ3.6 Vanagon after that.(mounted, needs everything finished) then Creamsicle.
