     A  A Last weekend I wet blasted the front 1/3rd and trunk of 1488.
     With the
     A  A surface painted with self-etching primer and hood off, I am
     going to
     A  A pull the radiator and replace the coolant pipes. While I have
     the
     A  A radiator out, I plan to tilt the radiator all the way down and
     add
     A  A sucker fans.
     A  A My radiator input and output tubes take a 90 degree upon
     leaving the
     A  A radiator and extend towards the middle. The tubes would be in
     the way
     A  A of a fan mounted on the back. I've never heard anybody mention
     this
     A  A issue.AA  Laying forward will require new mounts be welded in
     reverse
     A  A configuration, but do I just cut the elbows on the back of the
     radiator
     A  A to remove the 90 degree turn? How do you add a flair to secure
     the
     A  A hose?
