That's a little too close.
I'm not sure what you're going to fit in there. My old setup was a pair of fans off a '90 Nissan Maxima. Since there were two fans the water pump sat between them. The fan shroud was steel and fit the radiator core nicely. It also had arms that reached around the radiator to mount to the radiator support. A little tweaking had it fitting nicely.
I used it for several years, including the road trip from DFW to Green Bay, WI during the summer of 2004. I had the small fan set to turn on with the key and the larger fan was on demand.
If my radiator hadn't plugged up with goo I imagine that setup would still be working.


We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind.
