Does any one on here have a picture of the air dam mounted to the hood that is running the radiator in front of the support? The way i have it figured it will have to be notched if the radiator is mounted in front of the support.

The thing to do is have the top hose outlet at the same position on the tank as the stock 6-cyl radiator did, that way you could use the existing factory notch in the dam.

Stock 6 banger baffle. I stole this from ebay, so it may go away in time.

Well i think this subject has changed again. I`ve about decided i really do not want my radiator in front of the support so i guess i`ll put it in the stock location and go back to the V-belt pulleys and the ole flex fan.
