951 radiator installed
This was a nice little modification. Took out the OEM radiator, checked the thermostat (super easy without the radiator), straightened out the brackets, made a few cuts and the bent the brackets to accept the taller radiator. Then I cut some sheet metal to make some gussets and welded those on. The brackets still were pushing out so I found some 1/2" square tube and welded a cross member. Added a couple of small blocks of rubber for the bottom and the 951 radiator fits very snugly.
