Weber 48's off gassing ?

I took the car out for a nice drive today in 21 deg C weather....about 72 deg F. I was surprised to find the oil cooler fan running when I parked and shut off the motor after some city driving.  Again when home while cruising at about 50 mph I shut the motor off and the fan was on. Sound right / ok ? I'm running 10-30 VR1 Racing oil.

I was drilling a 1/4" hole in either side of the rear bottom of the deck lid " center box" to encourage rain water to drain out naturally en route and heard a strange sound from the right carb. Sort of a Shhhwoosh about 2-3 seconds long. About five minutes later the left carb did the same thing. Weber 48's. Any ideas on that ? Normal ?..I've just never had this setup before. Thanks.
