Custom radiator cover upper support REDUCED PRICE
This radiator cover will add a unique style to your engine compartment and is sure to gain attention whenver you pop the hood. It is designed to
dress the top of the radiator and radiator support on 67-72 Chevy pickup trucks. It is CNC laser cut and press brake formed from of 16ga steel for a rigid support. the corners are TIG welded and ground smooth. The cover is available in 4 options. Full covers replace the stock upper radiator support mounts and are useful when using an electric fan and want to eliminate the unused stock upper shroud mounts. Partial covers are used when you want to keep the stock mounts in case you are using the stock fan shroud. It fits between the stock mounts using the inner two bolts for attachment. Both styles attach using the stock bolt holes for V8 radiator location so no drilling is necessary. Stainless steel button head bolts and hardware are included! These covers are available for both standard V8 and HD V8 radiators. To determine which radiator you have, measure the stock upper mounts overall
length. Standard mounts are 5 1/2" long and HD mounts are 6 1/4" long.

You can purchase through my website at http://www.hotroddynamics.com/Products.html

Re: Custom radiator cover upper support
What's the difference between the full and the partial cover?

Full cover replaces the stock upper mounts eliminating the upper shroud mounting holes. This is benificial if you are using an electric fan. Partial cover goes between the stock upper mounts and would be useful if you are using the stock shroud. If you want a full cover and want to use the stock shroud, you may be able to modify the shroud to work with a full cover.

Re: Custom radiator cover upper support
I have significantly reduced the price on these and added the option of with or without holes. For now I only have the Full covers.
Check the options and pricing on my website where you can use secure checkout to purchase through PayPal.

I believe 73 takes an entirely different radiator support and it would not work without significant modifications.

Re: Custom radiator cover upper support
Do you use the stock style rubber mounts inside the cover? Like the ones that are already in my HD brackets?
