Re: Derale fans

I have a car here im working on with a 3 row rad and derale fans. the shroud is pretty thick. I have to trim away the area by the steering box for it to fit. ill get a photo in a bit.

I barely fit a 2 row mishimoto radiator with a dual derale fan setup in my car. I don’t have A/C which helped. The back of the fan shroud is like 1/4” away from the steering box.

Re: Derale fans

Dewitts radiator, derale shroud. With stock accessories, you'll have plenty of room. I'm using an aftermarket serpentine setup, and it's tight. I set the shroud up so I can slide it right out the top in under a minute, without needing to go under the car, in order to access the belt. Obviously trim as needed around the steering box.
