Re: 51 Chev on a S10 frame, named Dale

Now, the Rad.

I purchased the rad from Summit, but for some reason, the lower rad outlet was angled in, toward the middle of the rad, so I found a guy that welds aluminium and he put on a straight outlet.

I sat the rad on 2 large round rubber supports, but needed to attach the top. So I made 3 brackets and attached them to the 3 pieces of split vacuum hose at the top of the rad. seems very secure.

Also, anyone using a SBC, these rad hoses worked well. The upper is a perfect fit ,for a 55 Chev with a V8 - Gates 20416 and the lower is the upper rad hose for a 1999 - 2003 F250 with the 7.3 diesel - Gates 22433. There is a slight 'fold' in the lower, but I think it will be ok

Also attached the 16 in SPAL fan and wired it up.

.........getting closer everyday
