That's interesting. Maybe I didn't have it in there right. But I did a lot fiddling with it to try and make it fit better and no matter what I did that plastic scoop rides on the condenser core. Sort of looks like that's the way it was designed to fit. As in sandwiched between the upper support and condenser core. Condenser cores are pretty weak by nature.
I could remove the scoop. Its only attached with 2 bolts. If the scoop wasn't there it would definitely fit much better.
Even then though, tilting the radiator and condenser back leaves a gap around the top sides of the cores. And I don't care for that. Seems like it would have an effect on air flow through the radiator and condenser cores.
The other issue is the top radiator mounts. The instructions say to flip them around, but when you do that they don't fit right due to little knobs on the top of the radiator.

IDK, like I said it seems like a good theory, just they didn't engineer it well. The fit and finish is poor. Looks cobbled and cheap.
