Op, it's SUPER EASY!! Find yourself a stock 3 core and all you have to do is move the upper and lower rad supports on the passenger side over. The bolt holes are all there and predrilled/threaded, it's like Lego. No mods AT ALL!

Super easy if the radiator end tanks are the same thickness. If you have to replace the rubber pads with the longer rubber, then the longer lower retainers are easy to replace. I had to bend a lip on the core support to fit the lower retainers. I got the lower retainers from a wrecked truck, but cut my upper retainers and welded in a short extension.
Additional info in this very similar thread.
