Looking for Vetical rad pics.

I'm trying to figure out how to stand up my rad to make more room for the blower. If the rad sits a little higher then the top cross-member will the hood close. My end tanks are maybe an inch taller then the stock end tanks.
I've noticed that some poeple cut the top cross-member but some people mod the bottom. MY new rad is the same width and height as stock but all aluminum. Any pics would be great.

Here is my old one. The rad. was a little taller than the factory one, so I had to cut out the bottom support and make a new bottom support as well.

you can see the bottom support there (unpainted)

and there is my hand-bent cover for it. Tucks in nicely.

Nice pics keep them coming, I would like to tuck the rad under the upper support and drop the bottom to make it fit nice,

With those who have kept the A/C, did you have to get a different condenser when you changed the radiator?

I am thinking about modifying the lower radiator support to keep the A/C condenser and maybe the radiator. When I get to that point we will see how it goes.
