Fan too close to radiator?

Go to the internet and search Shop part Manual and confirm what the correct Fan, spacer, Shroud, Radiator and such should be for your car, Engine and Trans combo! Find and Use them!
Do not make guesses! Upgrade your Pump as 66fyssh suggests with the Flow Cooler and use a high flow t-stat! I suggest a 185 degree unit. Unless the Manual specifically calls for a lower # unit!
