Did you have any issues with the fan on an 8BA motor sticking out further interfering with the radiator?

My other thought was to go with the generator mounted fan but there might be an issue with the coolant hoses coming down to the front of the heads on an 8BA vs going to the middle of the head in the original style earlier heads.

Thanks!
