Default running ac fan instead of radiator fan

Will it work? Will I run into cooling issues?

I'd move it into the position of the radiator fan. The coolant path is quicker on the left side (your passengers side) so it's more ideal to have the fan along that path.

Do you still plan on running A/C? I don't think the A/C fan will keep up with a hot car in traffic with the additional engine load of the compressor.

Otherwise, it should be fine.

Why not relocate the battery to the trunk and leave your rad fan in place? Or get a smaller battery?
