    Okay Wayne, here are a couple more pics I found. I wasn't particularly clear on orientation so the pic of the bracket should clarify that, it's got a step in it that I'm not sure if the CE one does, but might give you inspiration for modification if needed. As for MII having anything to do with it, I would guess that depends on how it was installed. The second pic is of the rad installed, the setup is a stock frame with a Heidt's front suspension, the rad is a Walker. I'm trying to recall the stock rad (if that's what you're using), it might have a drop in the lower tank, but that should hang below the frame bracket line. As for making the transition from lower water pump nipples to rad if it's fairly tight and vertically misaligned there are short S shaped hoses and some cast aluminum S shaped that use very short straight hoses at each end that are typically used on '32s but might work for your particular need as well.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
