That's a nice radiator! What type of fan/fans do you plan on running? I got a clean clutch fan you can have if you need one.

What else you got over there in your tool shed? I need some stuff!!! LoL

Lol Not much just a bunch of chrome trim that I'm about to clearance out new year new parts

huh? I wouldn't weld braces on a bare housing it will warp/walk the tubes a jig has to be made for it. it needs to be cut down, either re use housing ends, or new housing ends, and bracket kit welded on according to stock housing...
