First, let me say you did a real nice job on that fan upgrade kit.
The shroud and fan package looks like something we'd do.
Second, our C6 radiator is built slightly shorter (about 3/4") than the stock radiator. The reason we do this is because it was the only way we could fit the radiator without trimming any plastic from the cover. We take pride in our line of radiators being a true Direct Fit and this seemed to be the only way. A lot of guys adding blowers and SC appreciate the extra clearence over the top of the radiator.
The term "header to header" (H2H) is often misused even by professional radiator people, so let me explain. The "header" is the plate that all the tubes weld into and there is one on each side. The end tank is welded to the header to create a chamber. The stock H2H dimension is 23.6" and so is ours. What IS different is the distance between the SIDE CHANNELS. This page shows both the inside and outside view of a header. Since the DP3E shroud is designed to mount on the factory fan mounting tabs, I don't see why it wouldn't fit our radiator. The shroud might stick up higher on our radiator, or look like it does, but that postion should be the same as any other brand. Again, nice job on the fans!

I'd like to get one eventually but it would have to fit atleast a standard size Dewitt since I would get it at the same time.

Tom thanks for your input, we are currently looking for someone with one out of a car locally so we can see if anything can be changed, we have two versions, one for ZR1, and one for all the rest, before we had only the ZR1 where the sides angle down and would hit the header on the Dewitts, with that said our Base/Z06 part number might fit, but we need to verify first.

East Coast Supercharging has installed a couple now on cars equipped with the Dewitts. Alex has confirmed it's relatively minor modifications needed but looking to get some photos soon hopefully!

I'm hoping this would be a direct bolt-on for my Magnuson supercharged car with a standard size DeWitts. It uses a ZR1 style air filter setup and an OEM ZR1 air boot. Stock radiator cover is still used, etc.

These are selling faster than we can keep them on the shelve's! Manufacturer back order on the fans at the moment but plenty of people already in line to receive the first ones when we get them in! Get your order placed today to avoid extended lead times!
