Got the fuel system and all the lines, etc... together. The only things left are the piping! So close to getting the car running :)

The radiator is a Summitracing Aluminum Radiator meant for a Ford V8. Dimensions measure at 27.5” x 19.0” x 3.5”. Inlets and outlets matches the OEM radiator :) The radiator is priced at $169 USD

The following things had to be modified because the radiator comes in only a core with endtanks:

- welded new studs that matches OEM lower rad supports
- welded top studs with custom upper radiator brackets
- welded a 3/8" NPT weld-in bung and used as drain plug

So basically, with some welding and maybe 30 mins of measuring, I got myself a full aluminum radiator for less than $200 USD :)
