got a deal on a 671 blower, and i think i will run out of room with the radiator, has anyone done or seen trucks with a radiator relocated to the bed?

any suggestions on whether the stock pump will have to go in favor of an electric and will it have enough umphf to maintain flow rates?

any knowledge or links to similar situations will be appreciable

I have been thinking of putting mine in the bed, I will be running an electric pump and I was thinking of plumbing it with copper pipe. It will be nice to see if anyone has done this though.
