Default Heat Exchanger and Fan Questions.....

So long story short my S/C 07 GT lost it's first and hopefully last battle against a wild hog. It is in the shop with a decent amount of front end damage. Need to replace Roush heat exchanger, radiator & fan, a/c condenser, and front bumper.

I've decided to go with the Roush front bumper, Mishimoto Alum. Radiator, Mishimoto 14" slim fan, oem a/c condenser, and the AFCO Pro-series heat exchanger w/ dual fans.

My concerns are with the fitment of everything and the mishimoto fan has a disappointing 1300 cfm. Will this be enough cooling to keep my radiator from overheating? I figured the slim fan would be best to allow more clearance for the H/E, Condenser, and Radiator. I am also installing a 2.5" cowl hood to help extract the heat. Some dimensions are below. Thanks for any help yall can provide!

Mishimoto Slim Electric Fan: 2.65"
AFCO H/E: 10" tall x 22.44" wide x 2" thick
Mishimoto Radiator: 29.3" x 21.5" x 2.55"
OEM Condenser: 24 X 16.56 X 0.63 in.

Get a Ford SVT 13 GT500 fan, bolts right in like stock and will cool like crazy. Why are you worried about clearance? there should be no issue. Also, the H/E hangs off the bumper bolts so it isn't up against the radiator and shouldn't even be in the equation.
I am running an AFCO radiator, GT500 fan, stock trans cooler, stock condenser, and the AFCO 80280pro H/E. No fitment problems at all.
