    You can kill two birds with one stone. Simply fab up a flat aluminum plate to go over the entire back surface of the fins and cut two appropriately sized holes in it for your two fans. It only needs to be about 3/8 or 1/2 inch off the fins. Your radiator will look cleaner and cool better.

    Woops, I was typing when PRRC was posting. That is absolutely the way to do it. And IMO electric fans are the only way to go. Safer (especially on a hoodless hot rod, and much more efficient.
