You lucked out. The Champion radiator I bought was garbage. It was so twisted that when you installed 3 mounting bolts the forth corner of the radiator was over 1/4" away from the radiator support, and the radiator support was straight. Lost $35 shipping it back and had to call 3 times and wait 2 months before I got my money back. Oh yeah, none of the holes lined up either. Would have had to drill new ones.

I guess I did! I had one corner that was a little bent, but I just took some pliers and a shop rag and bent it back straight. I bought this from a member who changed his mind and went a different direction, so there would be no returning this radiator. I'm gonna play around with the shroud and fans tonight after work to see how well they fit together. It all came from Champion, so I'll let you know.
