Edit version..Updated
Well I got it all done... Very happy... Things I would do different. 1.) No oil cooler on rad.. This would allow on to run the dual 220 Flex Fans saves more room.. 2.) Larger rad these ar 27 inches, I could have went with a 29inch in width.. Thats about it.. Thank for the help ta kid, Realquick, and others...

I have this in the FI as well but many dont come over so here it is again..

 

Why are you doing this to your car?

 

I assume it has something to do with making room for a turbo, if you notice the primary.

 

For the most part I just want the room... I do plan on going with a turbo down the road. With just the SC the room factor is terrible. I will have 6inches from fans to water pump.. There is nothing on my motor that cant be done in under 30 to 45 min now!!!!!!... It's only a 5k car (when I bought) I have no problem cutting and fabricating for my ease...You will see why when it's done... I no longer use this as my daily driver...I deleted everthing I could...

I would like to do something like this to mine sometime. Opens up alot of room. For some reason when I read vertical, I think the radiator is on its side, instead of its top and bottom standing up. would be quite the fit if that was the case.

 

Wouldn't you want to build a fan shroud so the fan pulls as much heat out of the radiator as possible...I know a couple of people with the aluminum radiators, and have custom shrouds on them.

 

Going for clean look, wish I could have used those low profile 220s 2inches less in width... I will pull the w-pump again and have all the inlets/outlet blocked for heater ( less hoses)... Testing it out for now... Only 50 out though...
