Just finished my M30 conversion pretty much!
Got a standard E34 535i radiator in it,
What is the best way for cooling?
Like what fan to use and relay so I can leave it constantly on if needed?
And is it best to have a fan blowing air into the rad or back through?
Thanks!

What's a really powerful fan to use? To force air through the radiator!

I'm using a Peugeot 307 fan.
But any off Ebay are good.
