Just finished putting in a Godspeed Al radiator. It mounted up fine, but it ended up shifting towards the battery about 1-1.5 inches. The radiator top retainer brackets have to be installed on an angle. Since the fan mounts protrude 1/2 inch, the drivers side fan wont mount up without modification. Is this normal, or am i just paranoid and complaining for no reason?
Otherwise, with just one fan, i dont even hit the 1/2 mark on the temp gauge. It sits just below. Must be quite a bit more efficient than the stock rad... |

that happens when the rubber boots arent sitting in properly, take it out and try to drop the radiator down straight with the rubber boots attached to the prongs.
if necessary get under the car and pull the rubber boots thru the hole, one side may be kinked and out of the hole. if it still doesnt line up get someone to chop those prongs off and move them over and weld them back into the correct position. -------------------- Mike W
