If it were me, I'd go the cheaper route first and buy the 10 blade fan and put a switch on it. If it still doesnt help then get the HL radiator and got the the upgraded fan w/switch.
O'riellys 10" electric fan made by Proform. Part # 67010
Cost $53.40 + tax :wiggle:
Kawi replacement fan $296.26 + shipping :nutkick:
This fan is a perfect fit and is actually about 2" wider in diameter than the stock and has ten blades compared to 4 blades on the stock fan. If I was to give an educated guestmation it pulls 2.5 times as much air as the stock fan.
Not sure I agree with with you completely on this. Running a DC motor under water for a short period may not hurt it but if it's under water under load for any length of time, water will get between the armature and brushes causing loss of contact and arcing. I have no experience with RC motors but I have worked on 12-48 vdc motors between 1/8 and 35 hp all my life.

polaris 425 you asked me what fan i used for the radiator.
i used a hayden automotive 12" electric fan that i had on my truck before i upgraded it to dual 14" fans.
here is a link to some 12" fans like it that'll work to.
the one from summit has the little plastic clips to mount it to your radiator the other one doesnt youll either have to get them or make your own bracket.
i used the plastic clips to mount it they work just fine. ive used them on my truck radiators for a few years now for the electric fans no leaks or problems out of em.
also you will need to run a new relay and power supply from the battery for any fans you install that require more current than the stock one so you dont fry something.
