Re: $$$$ worth $$$$
I think that firewall blanket is one of the best things you can do for a coupe.The difference in heat and noise is night and day with and without it.A layer of thin insulation under the floor mat makes a big difference too.You do NOT have an indented firewall.

While we are on the topic of cooling systems you might replace the 4 blade fan (it is actual part number 46-8600 from a 1933-34 four cylinder Ford but was the dealer replacement for 1928-34 four cylinder Fords) with a current aluminum reproduction fan. Buy it new from a reputable supplier as some of the older ones had problems. The original steel 2 blade Model A fan tends to fail slinging a blade into whatever gets in the way. The four blade like you have is better but there have been a few reports of them losing blades. Check yours to be sure there not any cracks starting to form and if there are not put it on your to do list. Charlie Stephens Last edited by Charlie Stephens; 06-26-2014 at 07:21 PM. |

That Was A Great Write Up On The Over Heating & The Fan Blade. The 6Volt Elec Fan I Was Going To Get Was Just A Precaution, I Don't Have Over Heating Problems, Thank GOD So It No For Me On The Add On 6 Volt Elec Fan. But I Will Check The Blade For Cracks, Thank You For All The Good Info How Many Blades Does The New part number 46-8600 Have ??? Harley03joe Charlie I Found This At Macs Model A Ford Fan - 6 Blade - Modern Plastic With Steel Hub - Replacement Type - FORD This has the correct taper on the hub for proper fit. It bolts to the hub using four bolts. An improvement in cooling flow. An ideal choice for the "touring" Model A. This has a 13-3/4" diameter. FORD MODEL A 1928, 1929, 1930, 1931 USA made. Due to clearance issues, this will not work on a Model B ( 1932-34 ) water pump. Last edited by Harley03joe; 06-26-2014 at 11:14 PM. |
