Afternoon all<br>
<br>
Looking for some inspiration, I am reassembling my tr3a and the new radiator is about to go in. I am wanting to attach an electric fan to the front. The fan came with the plastic ties of course but the fins are so dense that I feel they would get damaged if I pushed them through. Instead looking for an alternative attachment method. So far I have aluminum c-channel to attach to the side supports now figuring how to attach the fan to it. I reach out to the collective smarts for some ideas????? Pictures attached<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance<br>
David<br>
