Re: 72 radiator

Took a long look at the radiator core support and to me, it seems like the unit could sit over the two longitudinal support members. Their spacing is 41.5" outside to outside and 36" inside to inside if you wanted to put in the same cavity the old one was in.
Why couldn't you just lay the unit on those support pieces? I put my motor mounts in so that the engine would be forward as much as possible, but could easily move them to the backward position. Trans hump if necessary is not big deal. Almost going to pull the trigger and order the OEM rad and fan assembly.

Thought???
