You have both the inlet and the outlet on one side, hunh? Interesting. Looks like a good little radiator tech article is brewing.

Brew away, and yes, both are on the same side....i thought it was funny, but all the old chevy truck guys putting these motors in say they can use the stock hoses, i'm not sure if those are new motor stock hoses (i would assume so) or old school ones

That still looks like it's gonna be awfully close, maybe the picture doesn't show the amount of room that there really is. There's not much worse than putting a fan blade into a radiator. Makes for a  ty day in a hurry. _________________ Check out my woman's webpage so she'll be happy lol. If ya need photography work done this is the place to get it.

Just don't hit anything that will send the radiator into the motor...you'll be fine :-)

you have to account for frame twist, I know you like to think it doesn't happen but it does. like I said it's just me if you're comfortable with it cool.

We'll see what happens...i don't like it that close either...but we'll see what we can do...i don't like the 14" rear driveshaft either...
Edit: right now it's an 18" rear shaft

You'll never move the same amount of air with a reasonably priced efan as you can with a stock mechanical fan
just my opinion
and i'm on a budget...can't afford a $500 freakin fan...

That's where the aluminum radiators are really nice, but you're looking at it in person I'm lookin at a picture so it may be completely different than it appears.
