Fellas, I need some advice on mounting a chevy style radiator in my 73 Scout. Before you guys bust out the flame throwers I did a thorough search on Pirate and Binder Planet. I came across a lot of motor swap info, but very little actual radiator swap info. The truck is stock besides the Chevy drivetrain and I'm running an automatic tranny and will be using an electric fan. Ive got a radiator that measures 33L X 3W X 19H that should work fine. The first thing that comes to mind is to weld in a horizontal support for the top and another for the bottom of the radiator and use junk yard rubber bushings to cushion it. I'm sure someone has a better idea. I have access to a welder, but my fabrication skills are so so. Would it be foolish to cut out part of the IH core support and weld a portion of a Chevy truck core support in its place? What are your thoughts?
