Nice! Yeah, I do need the fans. I'll be running it on E85 for a while, but I'll be making a trip up to Canby next year which I hope you may be able to join in. For the trip I'll have to revert back to 91-93 and de-tune it quite a bit though. E85 will have it running cooler too!

My truck is a 73. it had a smaller radiator for the L16. From what I understand later model 620s had three row radiators to cool the L18/L20s a bit better. The L23 is very heavily built and will run quite a bit hot, so I wanted the best possible cooling. When the L23 goes in within the next weeks I'll also be converting to electric fans and an aluminum shroud. I'll post how-tos on that too! If your engine is mostly stock, stock radiator should cool it plenty!

Remember, You want as little gap as possible to more efficiently cool. I'm still planning on running foam between/all around the radiator/core support, and find the proper fan shroud, I will post updates when I do!

You'll need: Aluminum Radiator (This is a champion radiator) 10mm socket Slightly longer radiator bolts, Thread pitch are M8-1.25 (I used 30-35MM) 8x rubber washers. 2x M8x1.25 nuts (with lock washers or nylon nut if you decide not to weld the nut on the core support) 4x M8 washers Top rad hose off newer radiator Alumi-seal Take off your radiator.... Four 10MM bolts around the radiators... easy enough. The radiator bolts up in factory locations, either driver's or passengers, If you want it 100% centered you'll have to make your own brackets but here's how I did it. (It's honestly slightly off) Drill a hole through your core support for the driver's side mounting bracket, You'll need a LONG drill bit, or good measuring, measure four times drill once! ( I had to hog the hole I drilled a little bit) Circled in RED below. Make sure the radiator is LEVELED! You can chose to make your own brackets but this was the faster, easier, way of doing it. Aluminum radiators will wear out, and decay over time due to something called ELECTROLYSIS, to avoid this you have to space the radiator off the chassis, use said rubber grommets/washers to space it out away from the core support. The radiator touched the top of the core support, even with the spacers. I didn't want to space it anymore than I needed to so I bent the core support in a bit. Pour a little bit of alumi-seal to make sure any small leaks are sealed (Don't over do it) Run the truck for a bit, bleed the system, and let the alumi-seal work it's way around the system. Then enjoy your new aluminum radiator! Although I still need a shroud... if anyone local has a 510 Radiator shroud I'd love to test fit it..... 620 shrouds, Z shrouds don't fit this radiator. Only reason I ended up using this radiator is in preparation for my L23B, stock radiators cool perfectly fine and having one re-cored will cost just as much if not less than these radiators.

Look at the asshole in the hat, Looking all smuck and shit.

Run air struts in the back, they're wonderful. My exhaust is oval, not by choice. :(

I dig it, but too much rakeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

I seen these at the junkyard before, marked as PMR had like a fucking puma on the centercap. They're narrow though! :(

Always liked starions with SHP, wonder how they'd look with a Pantera hatch.

EWW EWW EWW

Need moar low, moar oil cooler, and moar moar.

If you were still in SoCal you could come over and try it... buuuuuuttt.............. haha, I'll test fit my other 620 grill on the 521 one of these days for you.

Two summers ago, My truck would run like complete shit was one of the hottest summers in years. The "cold air set-up" substantially increased performance during the rest of the summer. I still have the intake, tubing, and headlight funnel I shittly made too, weather or not it has REAL performance gains I'm not sure, but it DEFINITELY made my shit run better.

I snagged a grip of shit off the 620 at the Pick your Part on Beach. PERFECT D/S Fender, GOOD front bumper(very nice chrome), no interior, all glass, bottom end of L16 with Intake and Exhaust manifolds.... that's about all that's good on it left. 521 is fucked, but has a PERFECT fitting camper, good bed, okay front bumper, L20B swapped.

Literally just finished throwing in a 3.89 off a 720 ST, replacing my old 4.38... Yeeesh what a difference!

let's make this a good one!

Freddy, don't tell me Gizeh took the shot I.just edited them a bit lol. I really liked it too. Dale, they look pretty cool..... DEY SPINNIN!

I forgot to tell you dale, I ran one of these on my Civics when i ran antenna deletes on the outside back in the day, worked pretty well. http://www.ebay.com/itm/DUAL-AMPLIFIED-AM-FM-Hidden-Radio-Antenna-Golf-Cart-NEW-/151128801201?pt=US_Radio_Antennas&hash=item232ffa7fb1 Other than that, I use the pillar one off eBay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/PILLAR-ANTENNA-CHROME-DATSUN-BLUEBIRD-510-411-410-B110-720-620-/161113175400?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item258317f568&vxp=mtr

I'll edit more, but here's two I liked.

RIGGED! Just kidding, Congrats man!

See you guys tomorrow, Hope you guys don't haul ass from OC-LB.... SOME of us have shitty gearing...... Me for one..... :(

DAMNIT! Beat to Shamylan!
