Just cut out the lengths and prepped them for welding which I'll do tomorrow. I'll also post up pictures of it. I ended up using 2in shy of 6 feet of angle iron. This mount will not bend/break at all--Unless I decided to wrap my car around a tree (don't worry I knocked on wood).
As for the math it's not THAT complicated. It's more algebra than anything. Well I think I took a derivative or two, but that's it. Also what you can't really see B is the drain petcock; it's moved off of the T junction and is underneath the car itself so I don't have to finagle myself under it to drain it without a mess. Also the lower air intake vent may become automated so that depending on conditions and speed I can tell it to take in additional air from below the intercooler. Though that might be after I am able to paint the car and what not. The Scavenge pump is setup to be cooled by incoming air as well and the reduction in the volume accessible by the air will increase flow velocity which means additional heat transfer from the radiator to the ambient air. I'm still trying to figure out how to mount the fan properly (I'd prefer not to use the Autozone feed through pieces they sell), it's about 14in Diameter and the radiator itself tops out at 13.25 in at the core. I think that might just be enough to ensure maximum coverage of the fan without causing issue, but I'll be attempting to make a shroud and enable the fan to function much better than it's current setup.
