B16 with A/C and I need help!
91 hatch with a B16a, hasport mounts and hasport A/C bracket.
The problem I am having is I dont have any room to mount the condensor fan.
No condensor fan = no A/C.
There is about 2 inches between the radiator and the front of the exhaust manifold, so that is leaving very few to no options for putting a fan in there.
Anyone have this problem? Any suggestions?
Please no "remove the A/C posts", I have a 1 year old and he can't take the heat like I can.
TIA

you have to remove the bumper and place the fan in front of the condenser and rewire it so the the fan is actually pushing , instead of pulling..... lots of work but surely worth the trouble .....
I also had to buy a slim fan (off ebay) to keep my a/c w b16a.

This is what I was thinking. I just wasn't sure how to mount it in front of the condenser because one of the AC hard lines runs there.

thanks.. I'm going to install my header and see if that frees up anymore room.
