Fuck it. I'm going to put the engine fan back, mount this fan shroud in here, somehow, and make it line up even if I have to use a thousand zipties. I'm done. The boomers were right. You'd have to be a retard to swap an engine fan for an electric one.
It's me. I'm retard. Don't be me. I'm a thousand dollars deep into this.
