Extractor, you might be on to something. On your V8, the water pump is dead center. More than likely, your space problem is with the middle e fan. By using the stock XJ fan shrouds, the e fan motors will now be on either side of the water pump shaft, giving more room and by using bigger diameter fans and higher flow Spal or Flex a lite fans you should be able to cool that thing very nicely.
Just installed my new fans from permacool and i was very disappointed,because the result was much worst than the previus setup.
For one think i'm sure that i did get what they told me about.
Not real surprising. I've tried that brand and other, lower price ones with disappointing results. I have found that either Spal, Flexalite, or some kind of OEM fans are the only ones that really pull large amounts of air. The others say X amount of cfm but they always seem to exaggerate their ratings. Always go with as much cfm's as possible. Not enough and you over heat, too much will never hurt. Always overkill when it comes to cooling fans. Just my opinion.
I recently did a 5.9 swap into my XJ, and although I run what I consider warm, it is no warmer than the factory 6cyl and temps where I am are routinely over 38 Celsius or 100 Fahrenheit. My gauge routinely hangs around 200. I run a high flow aluminum 2 core radiator.
