I was thinking (and I don't know if I'm thinking correctly) that with most of my direct radiator airflow now blocked off by oil/trans coolers, I should go ahead and have UpRev turn on the fans full blast at all MPH settings (but still ramp up with water temp initially), just to provide some "pull" to get through the layers of radiators and help flow move in the right direction instead of deflecting off to the sides.
