Radiator

I Got a nice 4 core radiator out of a 454 i am going to put in my 350 the only problem is the little nipple on the pressure cap neck that connects to the hose to the overflow reservoir is broke off, i still have the piece that broke off is there anyway to fix that? can i braze it back on or something? also since i am going up from a 3 core to a 4 core do i need to get a different shroud? Thanks.

Re: Radiator

A rad shop would probably fix that up pretty cheap

Re: Radiator

I think the shroud still work or you can make it work, but i think you will need to get the 4 core hold down. It's a wider one piece panel that covers the whole radiator and you should get the wider bushings for it too.
