I posted the pictures with my laptop and they were fine. Now that I look at them on my iPhone, they are wrong. Grrrr...

Thanks Nate, is it possible to 180 these pictures for our desktop friends. When putting in the V6 you will need to either remove and replace crossmember or modify. I split and boxed so the mustang radiator will slide lower to line up with front of Buick. This seems to me to be the best way to go. I then tacked on some mounting tabs for the radiator to mount to the grill. Still waiting on my brother in-law to Tig up. I don't get to work on my jeep very often, it's in CA and I live in AZ. :)

I tried to repost, but I get a message that the file is too large. I just went straight from my ifon pics from choose file box. Do I need to reformat pictures? It is saying they are 2670k per pic. Sorry don't understand that stuff.

Thanks, Cole

Can't figure out how to post pictures. I guess file is too large from my ifone. Any ideas?

Thanks, Cole

At the in-laws working on the radiator mount. I forgot that crossmember was in the way, so I cut it longways and welded on a plate. My brother in-law suggested that I weld in additional material below the crossmember to protect aluminum from flying objects. Tomorrow I'm going to tac some mounting tabs on the grill and get my brother in-law to Tig them. I'll try to post some pics. :)

This is the one I used. If you bolt it to the grille like the later 3As used, then you don't need the braces. I added mine because I welded some mounts to the fame for it and I didn't want the welds to break.

Getting ready to order radiator. What year mustang am I looking for? I am assuming the old ones, so v8 or 6 banger. And how do you mount, should I weld in tabs to bolt to. Do I need to brace with the rods that bolt back to the tub? Anything else you guys can think of would be great.

Thanks, Cole :)

I believe the short water pumps are pretty much a small block Chevy thing, including the 4.3 V6.  A short pump is a necessity if installing a sbc V8.

This is a mustang radiator and I pulled my engine forward a few inches when I built my custom frame and suspension.

+1 on the Mustang radiator. I bought an aluminum one off Ebay with an electric fan. Had to also get the relay for it. Works real good and doesn't rob power from engine. Bolts up close to the grill for added clearance.
