   Both simple AND easy.
   Semi-lay-forward position with easily made side brackets. Fluidyne rad
   with Flex-A-Lite fan assembly mounted over the top of the rad (to avoid
   attaching through fins of course) with simple folded aluminum brackets.
   Very effective and looks somewhat stock in appearance to the casual
   observer.
