Hi all - When I first got my 64 I noticed the radiator in it tilted inward at the top. Its close to the fan on top than on the bottom. Is this correct? I know it is a replacement radiator as it has plugs for AT cooler on bottom, and doubtful I will keep this one, but still wondering if it is supposed to be completely vertical or not. Cheers!

 

My radiator has a definite tilt rearward as compared with the radiator support but, since the truck is not completely assembled, I can't tell for sure how it aligns with the fan. Since the engine also has an upward tilt going forward, it appears that the fan would be pretty close to parallel with the radiator core. Are your forward mounts o.k., not compressed...and does the fan run true, not wobble??

 

The core support is vertical on mine but the brackets on it that the radiator bolts to are tapered some from bottom to top so that gives it a slight tilt.

The rad support is completely vertical on mine, but the actual radiator frame, that bolts to the support, has the radiator core tilting in on top. Sounds like this is in fact correct, I just thought if I ever want to fab a shroud thats gonna be weird!!
Thanks guys -

 

Mount is on the right.
