Default Integra 5000, Sangui -1 Million

Today I was was really happy today to get my FAL Fans in. With these fans I was hoping to cure the problem that i was having with my stock fans, which was not have enough clearance between the header and the fan shroud. This was mostly due to my massively large Koyo Radiator that i had installed awhile ago. As a result the fan shroud would rub against the header and chip the coating away. Well Big Fucking surprise these fucking fans dont afford anymore clearance than the stock fans, and in the process I managed to scratch up my newly polished and coated kamakazie header. More fucking money down the drain!

check the dimensions of these fans and let me know of any of these will help you out, I can get pretty good prices on them. Probably WAY cheaper than that FAL fan and pulls more air too. The .pdf files have full specs on each model.

Get in that engine bay with a tape measure

Well I measured the Width of the fans they seem to be 6.6cm or 66mm. This is from the front to the back of the fan. About 6mm of this is from the soft trim around the sides of the fan unit. But even with this taken off its still doesnt change the clearance enough. I may have to go back to a stock radiator to get this to work. Funny thing is If I did go back to a stock radiator the stock fans at that point would afford me enough clearance anyway, which makes having the FAL fans useless.
