You have a damn good eye jtrichard because I didn't even post the clearer pic of the lower brackets. The pic also shows I'd only have about 1/2" clearance between the fan and radiator if I did mount it in the lower spot.

My top bracket is differently shaped than what 65 GMC showed in his pic, as well.
