Billy - Would it matter (from a cooling perspective) if it flowed top to bottom vs bottom to top? I can see where it would make a big difference flowing from side to side vs. top to bottom. I am checking with Nick btw..Here's a picture of a side to side flowing radiator. In this configuration a 1 fan, non-shrouded setup would work I reckon.Coz - do you know by chance if the FX radiator flows side to side?Edit: Here's a better pic of a side to side, 1 fan, no shroud setup. I think this setup will work, if he used a different fan/shroud setup, because the flow is going side to side and 100% of the coolant is in contact with fins/tubes being cooled by the fan. In a top/down or bottom/up flowing radiator, in say, heavy stop/go traffic conditions a good portion, say 40%, of hot coolant flows thru fins/tubes that are not cooled by the fan. This is why my car was overheating in a 1 fan, no shroud setup but why it doesn't overheat in a 1 fan, shrouded setup.
