Griffin radiator and dual fan setup

Anybody use the Griffin 31x19 universal radiator on a dual fan setup? I have the radiator sitting in my garage, and I've looked at the shroud, seems like it'd be wide enough to practically bolt right in. Just wondering what I'm in for this weekend.

How would the aftermarket (B&M 24000 Super cooler) bolt on? (I haven't received it yet.)

Now I finally have an excuse to get rid of the heater lines, but now I need an aftermarket oil cooler. =/

I run the smaller Griffin (29x17 IIRC) with the dual spal fan setup with my big block and it works pretty good (except 90+F days of which in MN we don't get too many ). I run and external trany cooler (BM style).

PS Post on how well the 31x19 fits after the install. Thanx

i got your setup,31x19 and just installed the dual fan setup. i had to space the top and bottom mounts of the fans out with washers to get the clearence i needed to keep the fans from rubbing.

Good, that doesn't sound too hard.

Miles - I'll try to take pics it after I'm done.
