Default radiator install

So i just installed my dual row aluminum radiator from summit last night in the pouring rain, which was awesome by the way. Anyways, it looks freakin sweet but i had to take out the rubber insets and then i had to modify the brackets a little bit, just a little too short, i had to make a reliefe cut in the bracket, bend it out and then bend the lip over the edge of the rad. i'll post up pics later when i get home but she looks good with my powdercoat blue rad cap oh yea!!!

Is it the Ford Racing aluminum radiator? If it is I got the same thing and had to do the same thing. It's a nice piece even though it has plastic endtanks...[&:]
