    Who started the red fan craze?

    I've seen this so much that I had to ask. Was it an old factory racing thing or just a fancy personalized custom look? Just a cool look? I know MotorMolester did it almost as a matter of routine.

    I hope this isn't sacred ground. Just wondering.

    Lew, that's how I bought the motor, complete and running, leak-down, compression all great. $1200 INCLUDING the red fan!
