Pusher puller?

[Ron L]

A Pusher/puller title in an automotive cooling forum, gee what else could it be? An airplane, of course!

Stickman did you try your idea out yet? If the fan blades and/or motors are rated to work in reverse then I don't see a problem, assuming you have the means to mount them to the front in the first place. Some blades only work best in one direction, some manufacturers say theirs work both as pusher/puller, and some have removable/flippable blades so you can position them the same way when switching from one configuration to another. If the mounts fit with little trouble then do it, the temp gauge will tell you if it's working or not.

I've seen a few factory FWD cars set up with a staggered push/pull fan, except the pusher fan is on the A/C condenser. Without A/C they just run the single puller fan on half the radiator.
