i got the exact same radiator. any pics of it sitting in there?
Starting on it now.
A while ago I cut the sides of the core support so that the radiator could move forward. I just overlapped the pieces and used some rivets to hold it together I will be adding some ?" thick soft foam to seal off the sides when it is finished.
Yesterday I went to the LKQ and got four of these from some late 90's Crown Victorias.
With so much of the core support cut off, I decided to mount the radiator a little different than normal, it looks like it is going to work out ok.
I apologize for the poor aluminum welds, I can do better if I go slow, but I was trying to move as fast as possible so the epoxy on tubes wouldn't get damaged. The tanks pretty thin, so I added a reinforcement, out of ⅛" material, then a thin wall ?" OD tube 2" long.
I cut the Crown Vic brackets down a bit, put a notch in the sides so I could bend them a little bit more, and then welded up the notch.
Note: I would not recommend using these, They are painted black by Ford, but they also have a pretty heavy zinc coating under the paint, and welding on zinc coated steel is not good for you.
And I got one of these from LKQ in Houston. Pretty expensive from them, but it came with the twin relay, etc. I wish I had known about these a long time ago, it appears to be a really good air mover, and the mounting design will make it easy to fit onto an aftermarket radiator.
