new rad installation

[rmk57]

I got my new rad installed and hooked up today. It's a 26"x 20" "be cool" universal. The mounting was much the same way Phil (Ford Crazy) did his. A bit of trimming on the rad support to set the rad back far enough to use a clutch fan. Even then I had to find the shortest fan clutch which turned out to be used on 1989-92 Jaguar xj-6's, but also a replacement for 428 Cobra-jet Mustangs, go figure. I ran the engine with cardboard in front of the rad for a quicker warm up (185 degrees) and then removed it and the temp dropped to 165 and stayed there, and this is without a fan shroud. It was only about 60 degrees here in Vancouver today. Needless to say I'm quite pleased with the results. Im sure the old rad had plugged cores because it would over heat regardless of how I drove it.  Randy
