Yes exactly. There's not much space round there on the D2 either so some stuff would need to be moved. I think someone has done a similar conversion on a D2 before and the blower ended up where the screenwash bottle goes. The bracket was a work of art, although the torque it would put on the engine block raised a few eyebrows. I can't find any photos unfortunately.

If I were going to put a centrifugal blower on a D2 I'd put it on the left hand side in place of the PS pump and AC compressor and convert both those to electrical versions instead.
