Re: Working Man's Burbon
Some more info on the radiator installation The new core was slightly taller than the old one and as a result the upper brackets are slightly angle up which means the shroud mounting holes no longer lined up. I took the brackets clamped them in a vice with some 5/8" bar stock and massaged them so the holes were lower and lined up with the shroud. Basically I bent the tab with the speed nut out and the pushed the top down flat. I also had to shorten the two bolts so they didn't bottom out before they tightened down on the shroud. Before and after photos.
