[68 short step]

got some progress to report....like said earlier, welded some studs to the back side of rad support cover, so the fastners would be hidden...then broke out the new howe radiator, and electric fan....had to remove one side rad. rubber isolator cup and move it over to mount this radiator....to move the cup over i had to cut a piece of the core support out and fab up a new 'raised lip' for the cup to sit on...then welded it all in...once the lower cups were the right width to hold the rad. i made some simple tabs for supporting the top of the radiator....once the rad. was hard mounted, i did some measureing (and re-measureing ) for the rad. cover... it came out well....the lower out let of the rad. is at a angle, and the studs going in the top are paralell to the rad. support, so i had to make the lower hole on the rad. cover more of a ovel due to all the factors (hope that makes sence).....it all went together as planed, and looks good....then i located the electric fan and mounted it to the rad, and again cut the hole in the cover for that too...there will be some flaps added for higher speed air flow too...
