[Fot] Trying to mount an electric fan on a high density radiator

[jim hearn]

Do I ultimately want the fan housing to even touch the radiator or
should it be mounted (on a special mount) back from the surface of the
radiator face by an 1/8 to 1/4 inch?  Do you have any photos of the
shroud you made?  Jim

I built an aluminum shroud that attached to the radiator frame.  The fan
attached to the shroud.  Worked great

I am trying to mount an electric pusher fan in lieu of the belt driven
fan
to gain the hp.  The radiator in my '74 TR6 ex-SCCA racer is the high
density type so I am not able to mount with ties the usual way through
the
radiator.  Does anyone have any ideas as to a good way to mount the
aftermarket fan?  Thanks for any ideas.  Jim
