No actually the previous owner fitted a thermofan (bloody noisy) unsure of the CFM figure but I'd be tempted to "retro fit" a clutch fan should I come across one at the wreckers (I have no fan shroud fitted either)

I have mine the other way and it sits mostly 70 -80, occasionally will hit 90
I have no temperature monitoring device for the transmission, however I can tell you the "shift" lever shaft that on occasions became too hot to touch now only gets very warm, I do plan on fitting a temp sensor in the future and am leaning towards the unit trialled by carvesdodo in the thread previously linked (OR a basic VDO configuration)
