Hello Paul,
I am looking at all the alternative for where to mount the radiator.
What was the required distance behind the radiator that your test came
up with.

50% of the maximum dimension of the rad. If the rad is 24 inches
the back side should be straight for 12 inches before any curves
in the duct are attempted.

Best to mount it underneath the engine. Come in with the air on top of
the rad and let it out the unobstructed bottom.
