Radiator ?
I'm looking at putting a 4-Core big block radiator in my truck. Will it work with a small block or will I need to make some changes? Should I use the Big block fan shroud or the small block?

Re: Radiator ?
You will need to change the rad mounts ( 4 core) for the radiator and mount your shroud to that radiator, the small block one is fine, I think the big block shroud is for the larger fan which you don't need to change.

Re: Radiator ?
I think the shroud mounts to the radiator supports on top. So I’m thinking your shroud won’t work with the larger radiator. Can someone confirm this?
