I am perplexed! After putting the nose piece over the radiator and bolting the front fender brackets to the radiator bracket and the 2 rods that go to the firewall, I noiced that there are pronounced horizontal gaps on either of the sides of the radiator shell and the top piece ? It seems to be due to some exta stresses since I am doing a 251 conversion from the 230 and have the extra clearence alloted for by turing the radiator 180 degrees and mounting it to the front of the radiator bracket which btw slants back toward the engine so have compensated by putiing spacers in the bolt holes for the radiator to bracket at the top so the radiator is vertical. As I am an amature... I really dont think that I have messed around with this conversion as its been a real bi*** to do. Any thoughts folks? Im getting tired of this
