Yes, I think in front of the AC condensor is the right place.

I'm trying to get a Fluidyne unit, and thinking of a lightweight fan. I might need room for the VQ30DET Motor.

Matthel mentioned the price and I was like

It'll work well with your DET motor. They don't have one for the Max so you'll have to custom mount it, right?

No problem!

Now that I think about it, the oil cooler would be in the way of the intercooler because the OC is mounted where the bottom opening of the bumper. Unless you mount the OC somewhere else, it will either be behind or in the way of the IC.
