It did hit before, but not too much. Was more embarrassing than anything and trimmed the shroud nicely for my next fan. I walked through a local yard over the weekend and found a Mustang with an 8 bladed fan that was pretty rusty in the back seat as well as a 5 bladed fan from a Volare - again found in the back seat. Both were about 18". Took the Volare one for $20 and painted it up and now have about an inch of clearance on each side. Gonna fire it up as soon as it quits raining and see how it handles idling. Temp is always pretty low until I hit the lights and stop and go traffic - then things get interesting.
