dougs 'Bolter D Joined: Oct 2012 Posts: 130 MA	I have a 49-3100 with a 55-235 engine. Water pump and fan are lower to the radiator. I installed a 17 inch 6 blade fan and used spacers to locate close to radiator. I used a Robertshaw high flow 180 thermostat and the motor runs at 180 degrees with no over heating issues.
