The new radiator does not have an automatic transmission cooler so I needed to mount one. I bought a heatsink stlye cooler and planned to mount it under the front bumper but I didn't like it. I ended up mounting a tube-and-fin style cooler behind the lower grille.
It's going to be close but I have a feeling the engine-driven cooling fan is going to be too close to the radiator for comfort. I'll have to wait and see how everything lines up before I decide how to handle that.
I also fabricated a mount to hold the bottom of the radiator. The new radiator should be here tomorrow and I hope to have the car on the road by this weekend.
