I'm finding the big block radiator that I'm upgrading to (because I swapped engines) to be a bit wider than the small bock one that my car used to have and so I'm pretty sure big block cars got radiator supports with the radiator mounting flanges in different locations (wider apart). I need to know the size of this opening and whether it was centered in the radiator support or offset on one side or the other so I know how to modify the support I have.
My next problem is the water pump pulley I have for my 400 engine seems to hit the crank pulley(s) when installed so I'm thinking one or the other of these is wrong. The Water pump pulley I have is 6" outside diameter and the crank pulley assembly is 7 1/4" outside diameter. Could someone please tell my which if any is wrong? The car has AC and power steering.
Thanks for any help, I desperately need it!
