You will gain a lot more efficency from your radiator if you add a shroud between the radiator and the fan. Reason is that there is a "dead" spot in the radiator where the fan motor is not allowing any airflow throught that part of the radiator that it is right next to. Pull the fan at least 1" away from the fan and you will see an improvement.
