Finishing HD Radiator Install, Continued

Today worked on installing the fan shroud for the HD four core radiator [same as BB radiator] for a 350 CI engine. This is an upgrade for this truck, non original. Review of parts, fan shroud is for a Big Block {BB} from LMC Truck, top two radiator/fan shroud brackets are for a HD four core radiator, non BB. Media blasted the brackets and paint them gloss black, and ceramic coated the bolts. Have the fan shroud aligned, but not fully bolted down. So it does all fit. It took me a while to find the right parts for a 350 with this cooling system. Last part is to install the plastic cover between the two top brackets, next time.
