Options might vary, especially if we knew what year the car was

Not sure then as a lot of the room in front of the rad is probably taken up with the vac-tank and bumper braces. I'll guess also A/C so a condenser in front of the rad
Is there room behind the wheel-wells on those? Where the side vent are? Since it has the fan you're not tied to air-flow.
You could always go to the rear where there's some "space"
Anyway, someone will be along with some real suggestions

Hi,
Just another idea for you. I used an LPD 4590 which is 11x11 and mounted it in the very front without a fan. I wanted this position for two reasons.
1. It's away from engine heat.
2. The air dam forces air through when moving.
Here you can see it sits in front of the vacuum tank, right behind the center grill.
From below you can see the simple bracket I made and how it sits in relation to the lower valance.
