Looking through the Sachs parts catalog it seems there's a clutch design for every car ever made! But engine cooling basics must be common - I wonder what the fundamental differences are between clutch design and the most common reason for vehicle manufactures not to choose an existing part?

The misconception that air temperature correlates to coolant temperature in the same manor across engines, is (I think) the key .

I would be very interested to measure and compare the in/out water temperature directly at the rad.... any thoughts how this can be easily achieved?
