radiator to condenser spacing?
68 Camaro, entropy rad, V/A sure fit a/c
anyone know correct spacing when stacking a/c condenser, trans cooler, pwr steering cooler, and engine oil cooler in front of radiator?
thinking the 1 1/4" now is too much a gap between condenser and rad, hoping to gain velocity and help lower cabin temps a bit more.
found tip on Griffith Rad site would this be specific to only their radiator design or good general rule of thumb?Last edited by MAGONSTERZ68; 07-10-2018 at 11:55 PM. Reason: adding pic

As close as possible, you wont gain velocity through the parts with large gaps

For whatever it's worth, from back to front I have radiator, condenser, Oil Cooler & P/S cooler. In other words the oil cooler is in front of the condenser. A/C works about the same before & after adding the oil cooler. But on the street the oil cooler isn't generating a lot of heat.
