I moved my rad forward (Summitracing - BeCool), and, installed (2) Flex-a-Lite 12" pull type fans. Low profile. I had to fab my own mount for fans and cut some of the housing/ shroud to make them fit. They are a permanent part of the rad for easy removal. F_body is all about easy assy/ dis_assembly. Fans work good, but, there are many options now that single big fans can be purchased (@ Summitracing.com).

Re: vertical radiator questions

theres an 1/8 inch NPT fitting in the top of the water outlet, i just put a 3/8 barb fitting in that location, and ran the hose to it, and no problems with it so far

still havent figured out what to do for fans yet....
