You WOULD have cooling issues if you could conceiveably, install the fan backwards...

The fan blade pitch and direction would be reversed, so instead of scooping the hot air and drawing it away from the radiator, you would be drawing the radiated heat from the engine and blowing it into the radiator!

Then your aux fans would be running all the time trying to keep things under control...whether or not the outside temps were hot or cold!
