One more cooling issue

famous bob said
I just looked at ur pic, shroud and fan are worthless. The fan is sucking air from the sides of the shroud backwards from the engine compartment , fan don`t flow enough anyway !
I drove my 505" fastback a little yesterday , it got up to 208 in town , and cooled back off to 195 on the road , it was 96 in the shade and pretty humid .
How much room do u have between the pump and rad. ?

I literally have a couple of inches if that between the radiator and the water pump pulley. In fact the fan Hass to be offset some and it’s motor Ride directly between the water pump pulley and power steering pulley. Any radiator/fan upgrade that I’m going to do is likely going to have to be on a pusher system.
