I've had the car for 14 years now and have had 4 other 67's and a 69 w/big blocks and never broken a motor mount. Not to say there won't be a first time though. In order to run the March setup I have, it only works with a long pump setup. I *MIGHT* be able to get away with running dual fans as long as there's room between the fans for the long pump snout. All that said, that's not my inquiry; it's the thickness of the radiator itself. With the long pump, regardless of mechanical or electric fans, there's still the distance from pump to radiator. That's why I asked for input on radiator thickness being run by fellow list members.
