I am installing a pusher fan and was wondering if there is a preferred place for max cooling? Should I bias the fan toward the inlet or the outlet of the radiator? I have a theory just want to hear from others. Yes I know that a puller fan with a shroud is best but in my situation there is no room on the engine side.
Thanks, Digger73 (Mike)

Thanks Mr_P_Body. No restrictions. There is plenty of space in front of the radiator just no place for the fan on the engine side.

airflow coming in the grille, and how well the hood/radiator seal is, affects the results
