Default BDR cooling

Guidance appreciated:

Looking to upgrade my 2012 BDR by adding an oil cooler and pusher fans which looks straight forward but, I'm not having much luck finding aluminum shroud options and radiator mount frame options.
To help cool the z460 I upgraded to a larger radiator and higher CFM puller fan. There was so much heat in the engine compartment that the car vapor locked after a few miles. Moving to a FAST EFI fixed that issue.
Anyway, I was hoping to find radiator shroud options for both intake and post radiator, and move the large radiator from a vertical mount to an angle (currently hangs just a bit lower than the frame which obviously makes ground clearance even more of a concern).

I've seen some pics of aluminum shrouds that look awesome and seem like they would efficiently funnel intake air towards the radiator.
So, I'm looking for:
1) Intake aluminum shroud options
2) Post radiator shroud options that augments the current plastic shroud that came with the fan
3) Mount assembly needed to put the radiator at a slight angle
4) Suggestions on an oil cooler with thermostat that closes fully (some allow a small amount of oil to flow when shut which I want to avoid)
5) Suggestions on pusher fans with mounts (preferably not the center bar style - yes, I know pushers won't help much if at all).

Thanks a bunch for the assist!
