How could you stand up your radiator vertically and not cut the radiator support?

Lol, if you hate cutting up your car then youre going to hate standing it up.

Cut a little. Test fit. Cut a little more. Test fit again. Over and over until it works. Then you clean up the areas you cut. Done. Shouldnt take more than a couple hours.

Why are you wanting to stand it up? Most of us are running radiators in stock position.

I put the vert. griffin in mine last weekend, im not scared to cut on mine though, but if you look in this thread Clicky there are lots of ideas. But I think there is one pic relevant to your interest in there where the guy recessed it enough that he only cut the top support for the cap to go on.
