Stuck in the new radiator, plumbed it to the oil cooler plate and ignored the rust again. Good thing tomorrow's Saturday, eh? For some reason the PO had lowered the radiator about 2 inches; I stuck the new one in the stock location and it fits fine; no problems with the hood or anything. Things that make you go...
WTF

Power steering cooler/leftover from another project:
Super sweet 3/8" tube for oil cooler:
Everything hooked up:
I promise I'll weld some frame tomorrow...
