Can you tell me how you got your radiator to fit? My upper and lower radiator supports that hold it in place do not fit the radiator at all. Any info/pictures would be very helpful. Brandon
Great build by the way loving it!!!!

[bmfpeterson]

Well I haven't installed mine yet so Ill let you know. if I remember correctly the one I ordered will fit in place of the stock radiator?

Just ordered all of the mounts and bushing for the radiator. I ordered hoses as well, but just to get it started, I want to get some stainless tubing and make my own upper hose (Im not stealing your idea cheby but its close!)


I need some ideas for an air filter I always wanted the scoop style with the butterfly openings attached to the carb linkage but damn its expensive and Im not sure if I just might want to go with something clean and simple????


What do you guys think??

I think that whatever gets that motor running is the right choice. Now get with it!!

[bmfpeterson]

So I got mounts for my radiator and got it in. Need trans lines, and and a rad hose and that's done. Also got my bags in yesterday in the back and am building a track bar today!

I'll post pics tonight when I get it done
If everything goes to plan I'll be firing up the motor this next weekend?
