3tc Engine swap

Hi there so I've been working on (for too long now) swapping a 3Tc into my ke30 chassis. So I have the cross member that I was told I needed in order to use my old drive shaft and it sits the engine pretty far forward, which doesn't leave much room for radiator or fan. I'm wondering if I have the wrong engine cross member or how do I get around this radiator problem? Any help appreciated. Thank you!!

Hey Mate

I did the conversion in my KE55

I had a 4k with a k50 trans in it before

bolted the engine in on the standard crossmember and rotated the trans crossmember 180 degrees
all bolted in and used the standard tailshaft with the tailshaft being the correct length
