84' Cutlass pro touring build

See pic. Radiator will be raised about another 1/4" from here. Looking to the right of screwdriver the metal on the core support looks to be an rubbing issue. Can I just use a split piece of rubber hose to stop contact?
Any advice appreciated

Don’t have pictures currently but that’s what I did for my swap meet dual pass radiator. It’ll work fine, you could even try making some hold downs from scratch to hold it away from the core support.

I am making my own aluminum mounts so It will be held away but I'm still going to trim it a little

Pull a tape line from side to side that sections off the excess material. Cut it off/smooth the edges so it has a nice, clean, uniform appearance.

A little trimming. Added rubber support under radiator. And did some minor trimming on this fan setup. Surprisingly it fits very well.... almost like oem

Nice looking shroud and fan setup.
