I could relocate the radiator closer but that would take rework of the mounting holes and support braces. The top hoses would be easy enough to modify for the radiator movement, but the lower hoses already do a pretty tight S turn, and I am afraid moving the radiator an inch and a half would make them even harder to get on and off, and maybe kink them.
Also thought about making an extender for the fan mount to get it closer, but the fan on the '41 is already on a 4" long shaft in front of the pulley, and I worry about keeping the extended assembly centered and balanced.
From what I have read, the shroud would be even more effective in getting more air flow through the radiator core. Should know in a week.
