How to attach taurus fan to rad?

[Dean85GT]

Like the title says. I just bought a taurus fan and I am wondering how everyone attached to their rad.

Here's a few pics I have of someone on here who fabbed up some brackets.

if you get an install kit for a tranny cooler, you get plastic straps much like zapstraps, with rubber isolators, they go right through the core. neat and tidy.

cut some aluminum strapping and folded over the rad edges...pic shows my mock up on my old rad, used self tapping screws on the shroud and elec tap on any areas in direct contact with the rad fins.

What ronburgundy said. Ask for radiator zip ties and they will come in a pack of 4. Very neat and clean. They insert through radiator fins. I got two packs and used all 8 just for giggles.

Where can I find that aluminum strapping?

Any close up pics of where the strapping contacts the fan & radiator DMAN302?

I see you guys aren't running overflow bottles... is it fine to just delete the overflow when running an e-fan?

Hardware store for the straping..actually I not only do run the overflow but modified the stock shroud to hide the fan as well...you would never know the stock clutch style fan isn't even there. Bend the straping over the edges of the rad and drill holes through the straping and simply put a screw through it.
