Will a Scirocco Radiator work for a Turbo Streetcar?

My new radiator came yesterday, but it hangs a little low.... uh huh

Will a Scirocco Style Radiator work for a moderately high hp turbo streetcar?

Nah.... I'm just complaining....

Trying to fit a good sized radiator and intercooler up front is turning out to be a nightmare..
