Core support and rad
I'm putting a psd in my 250 and I have a rad but the core support took a lot of damage from the rollover and was unuseable what would be the best way to cool this monster. Have a friend of mine fab up some brackets for the gas support I was going to use electric fans so Id have more room or try to hunt down a southern core support or my other idea would be get an idi core support and pick up an idi rad off Craigslist and run that and sell my rad to recoup some of the cost.

I'm running into the same thing with my 350. I've got a new gasser core support and two rusted diesel ones. I'm gonna take the bottom part of a diesel one and graft it to the new gas one. The big hoop on the bottom of the diesel ones aren't rusted, just where the body mounts are.
