The other point is the since the rad inlet is limited to ~210F, we know that the larger the temperature drop, the lower the average radiator temp (goes down by half the increase in the delta T), and the larger the radiator core needed to dissipate the heat; a weight and space factor. For an inlet air temp of 80F, a coolant temp drop of 50 degrees needs about 15% more core than a 20 degree drop. Not a big deal; but something to consider.

Al, with the weight savings of the EWP (about 6lbs), you can add another GM core. In my proposed design, space won't be a factor. But wouldn't I need to then open up for more cooling air, or is that 15% figure with the same air mass?

This is by far the hardest lesson about freedom. It goes against
instinct, and morality, to just sit back and watch people make
mistakes. We want to help them, which means control them and their
decisions, but in doing so we actually hurt them (and ourselves)."
