We should all e-mail "Engine Masters" on YouTube or TV or wherever you view them and have them do a back-to-back comparo of "our" fans, along with this time using an anemometer to gauge air flow. Their test only tested the power output of the engine with each fan.
Since they've already done their multi-fan shootout though, so might not be interested.
Did you all see it yet? Episode 20

The one thing they missed was that the unshrouded fan looses less power because it's pulling less air through the radiator.
It might have "more air to bite" as they said, but it's not pulling it through. It's simply sluffing it off the tips of the blades and letting it go hither and yon instead of focusing it over the blades.
At least that's my non-engineer take on it.
So that's our argument to them for doing it again. Different fans and this time using an anemometer.
And of course, using our choices of fans. The Taurus, the Explorer, and the two factory fans. Or any others we want.
Let's get an e-mail campaign going!
