    Well, after farting around with the Rpu for a bit i put the 32 shell in place...inorder to get the right line from the cowl to the shell i'm looking at around 16 1/2 to 17 inch height.... max! Any tips on what may fit in there and look right?

    Thanks
     
  2. Oh I thought you ment I should suggestion Rad and I was gonna tell you to get a mohawk.

    Don't know what it needs to cool but the radiator from a Willys/Overland will fit in there real well, they were commonly used way back when. Don't think it will cool a blown 392 but it should do alright with most standard motors. I also don't know how you're set up but a lot of fellas used to move 'em forward and drop them in front of and below tjhe cross mamber.
