MG Midget and Sprite Technical - 1500 fan blades

sorry to bring up same old topic...keeping a 1500 cool.
If one looks at the moss catalogue they list a clear plastic fan assy for hotter climes, rkc2126, same part number for the spxxxxre. Has anyone any experience of this.
Worth fitting ????

Yes I do, my 1500 was running hotter than It used to before it got laid up, I had a spare engine from a Dolomite 1500 which had one of these fans attached, so I fitted it, and it did make a difference, the blades are a little taller and a little broader. I have since got to the bottom of my issues (I hope), the summer will be the real test, if it ever comes! I have now removed this fan and replaced it with the original, and on the first run after the change, the engine was idling 150 RPM higher.
