where did you get that radiator? Looks like it fits the stock rad support really well

There were modifications to the support to make it work. Builder requested I don't show pictures of what he did yet. Rad is just a small griffen that some other builds on here have used

Would you be willing to give up the dimensions of the radiator? Was it an off the shelf unit or custom? Looks great BTW Cant wait to get mine started

Its an off-the shelf unit (I believe the exact one Kyle is running), but we welded aluminum mounting brackets to it to faciltate mounting.
