Progress
My progress so far
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I'm currently deciding that I'm probably gonna have to run an electric fan from the looks of it. Big Things left to do: 1. Figure out how to mount the BB radiator when there are no support holes in the radiator for its cover. 2. Bolt up the exhaust manifolds 3. Install all the vacuum and heater stuff on the intake, install the dizzy, and fasten down the carb. 4. Figure out what to do with the water pump, its pulley and the fan setup...this includes the figuring out how I'm gonna fasten the pulley on the pump. Usually I've noticed it's studs, but I tend to have horrible luck installing them.

Re: Progress
do a custom shroud like I did for my 83...it was the only way I could get the shroud to go back on after I put in a 19 inch 4 core radiator...just trim and solder to fit as needed...and if ya mess it up, shrouds are a dime a dozen at junkyards

Do you have any pics of your mount cause the picture looks like a stock chevy truck? Because my radiator is monstrous and was suppose to be a direct fit....phhhht. Would I see a lot of overheating problems if I stuck the old radiator back in?
