I have run into a major problem with radiator placement. There is zero space in front of the engine - I tried placing a radiator from a RX7 in the front, but I had less than an inch between the radiator and the engine on the bottom and about 4 inches at the top (after I chopped the upper radiator support out for room). I will also have to take a notch out of the bumper for the fan. The air will not be able to go under the engine, all of the air will all have to go over it since there is no place for it to go around the sides. So, it will have to work it's way around the accessories to get to the back of the engine compartment, down, and out. I looked at opening up a hole in the hood right at the nose of the car, but the aerodynamics are so squirrly there, that I will have to put a giant cowl hood on there to direct the air over the top.
