Kind of running into a bit of a snag here. I have a '70 Nova that I put a Treadstone intercooler in. It sits between the grill and the radiator. Without going into too much detail, I might need to slide the radiator back towards the engine a bit which will put the hotside about 2 inches away from my cooling fan. Does anyone think that the fan being that close to the hotside will cause a problem if the hotside is wrapped? I've never used exhaust wrap so I don't know it's capabilities. It wouldn't be the fan motor near the hotside, it's just part of the blades. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks in advance.

I sprayed my hotside with VHT header paint before wrapping, and then sealed with DEI silicone wrap spray.

While it still gets hot, it doesn't get hot enough to melt anything that's not touching it. The plastic wire loom for my starter/crank sensor is less than 2 inches from my crossover and the loom would melt way before your fan blades would, but its fine.

Should be fine.

I made a setup where the down pipe passed by the fan motor with less then an 1/8 of an inch. Essentially touching it and it has been going for 3 years now on a summer daily getting driven 45 min one way. Just wrapped the dp and it was painted as well.

My turbo has a blanket on it and that literally rests on the cooling fans. Been like that for like 5 years with no issues.
