The P76 rotors are still relatively easily obtainable?

mounted the radiator yesterday , didn't take any pics though - there should be plenty of room but not enough to keep the fans behind it unfortunately
radiator is a VK type crossflow

I’m guessing you’ll mount fans in front and modify the bonnet catch. The blower would make it difficult to move the engine back. Good to see you are finding the time, motivation and focus.
