I hadn't looked deep enough into it to figure out where the radiator
would come from. I guess I'd look for an aftermarket off-the-shelf
radiator before I pay big $ for custom... since I'll have to do some
custom mounting anyway.
I believe Shelby Daks used pusher fans. My concern is that even if I
can get a pusher that does the job, it's still gonna be pancaked
between the condenser and the radiator to keep it as efficient as a
pusher possibly can be. That means to replace or service the fans, it
means yanking the condenser. That means testing different fans and
different orientations wouldn't be a simple procedure.

I had thought of that. In CT there's no shortage of stuff to honk at.
I love the reaction I get from freshly deafened road raged jerks. :)
