Remote Radiator

Im looking to mount my radiator in the bed of the truck.

Im going with fiberglass bedsides and was thinking of using a chevy V8 radiator with dual electric fans.

Im wanting to know If I mount the radiator vertical just how much clearance in front of the radiator is needed?
If I mount it flat or at a slight angle 20', do you see any problems?
Im going to install some sheet metal below the radiator to help "scoop" air into the radiator.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Good idea!!! I'm sure it would work. Desert racers, crash derby, and other highly modified vechicles do the same thing.
