Cool Installed a Cheap Aluminum Radiator---Not Easy!!!

You have seen them on Ebay...I installed one. There is a lot of cutting & grinding of the rad spt at the bottom. The tanks do not fit in the stock mounts. I tried 3-row & 4-row and finally just used 1" rubber pads on the bottom. The top mounts had to be moved to the 6cyl position because the cap won't go on. Additional rubber had to be cut & installed in the top mounts.
But, it is in! I added an aluminum WP, and you can see my matching blue & silver light weight flex fan. The flex fan is much easier on the WP than stock & it looks cool, too! I also cut down & fitted a stainless top center guard to hide the ugly channel on top of the radiator.
