does the stock type 4 cooling system have a hot cylinder or does it cool fairly even?

QUOTE(sean_v8_914 @ Nov 23 2011, 09:48 AM)  does the stock type 4 cooling system have a hot cylinder or does it cool fairly even? An entire hot bank of cylinders, due to the tangential flow of air produced by the clockwise rotating cooling fan. It can be overcome and with the right combination it can be reduced.
