Actually Spal states in their mounting recommendations, "when mounting fans larger than 11" diameter, Spal requires a distance of 1/4" (min.) to 1/2" (max.) between the base and the shroud and the radiator surface (This protests against blade flex due to vehicle acceleration." I just bought the $10 1/4" shrod gasket that spaces it away and cushions it.
