Well here is the thing... most the information needed to do ALL of this has already been said... im not saying anything else (that and I dont even remember).

Im also not saying anything else because if you don't know how to use a tape and measure out the room you have for a radiator and order one that size, you don't have the capacity to perform the mod in the first place.

Third..... I get million of pms and people askin me questions (and like i said at first most if not all of them have already been answered in the threads)... and most likely none of them will EVER venture down the road to actually do it.

I was 18 when I did the radiator. Researched and measured and did it myself. At that point I really knew nothing of what i all know now. Basicly most of the people who ask me questions talk a lot on the computer and are scarred to open the hood of there car and tear it to pieces.

If you weren't scarred to tear it apart.... you wouldn't be askin me anything and would already be done

Just a little advice from me. Im not handing anything else out... plus, i don't want everyone and their uncles to copy me either. Im sorta unique at this point. I wouldn't mid keeping it that way

NOTE: None of this was exactly aimed at your c0rey (im not implying your scarred to actually do something or anything like that)... I just had to get it off my chest and tell people to quit making such a science out of something that there is little to. And the fact that looking at pictures and just doing is what got me here, and i was 18 and knew nothing when i started. I just got out the ole tape measure out and figured out what would work. I reccomend everyone to do the same and think OUTSIDE the box. Don't copy me!!!

I know exactly what you mean, I get A LOT of pm's about my turbo setup from people that I know don't have the ability to put on a turbo kit, or build what they need.

I saw the original post pics. Then one day I had cut-off grinder in hand looking @ rad support. 15 minutes everything was cut out. There was no going back. I'm glad I did it. My rad is larger, but, I made it fit. When I lift the hood, people notice it, but, what about all the other 30k+ mods I made??? B. Sad ain't it. (97ss 383 - D1 M6)

Made it 30 miles if I was lucky... gasket been out since i posted it's been out (back to "read the thread" issue).

Its in now. But snow everywhere. Plus I still don't have it licensed or insured so none of it really matters.
